- encourages good pre-planning
- discourages underhand pre-planning
- gives me the chance to talk to the other parent first
- removes any unwanted pressure from anybody involved who doesn’t want it, but might feel pressured into saying yes because they’re already there.
- most importantly. I (the adult) want to make the most of you (the child) being out of the house. I could have gone out to dinner, thrown a grownups party, etc.





Not to mention, the titles a poop joke.
