    Bothers me because I’m in process of divorcing my wife, and she pretty much does whatever the kids want so she can be the fun parent while I am the one who worries about this kind of stuff and ends up being the boring/antifun parent. So she has probably already done whatever, and if I stop them, I’m the bad guy…

      That sucks. And it’s a great example of how people don’t get how difficult it is to deal with this stuff as a parent. Even when you know better.
