Re: Just some things i thought of...add your own
hi- I'm visiting...
I've got one-
How about you guys NEVER have to lock the door in your bedroom while getting your freak on. Also, if you wanted to do it in the kitchen, on the floor, in the bathroom, in the backyard...YOU COULD!
I could never do that unless I want a traumatized child.

2) worry about school districts when moving
This was big for us. We wound up in a good SD anyway but it kind of stinks that I will never be able to make use of the $ I give to the SD. However, I looked one town over and the difference in taxes was really obvious. (Smithtown SD versus 3 Village)
My own:
I will never have to have a conversation with a child, telling them not to do something that I did when I was their age! (like smoking, drinking, etc.)
I will never have to check the age limit in order to make reservations at a Bed & Breakfast.

Only my 6 year old Goddaughter is old enough to have these concerts and stuff and I'm at every single one. I love watching her sing etc. but you're right the rest are usually pure torture.

My childless aunt didn't get off so lucky. She was my #1 Girl Scout cookie middle-woman. And for that, I love her! (and my loyal customers at Southside hospital! )

I'm totally barging in here where I don't belong, but I hope no one minds!
I love all of the responses, but these are my favorites...

Never have to tell a child "Because I'm the mom and I say so!"
Sometimes this is FUN!! If you want to try it without going through labor and delivery you can say it to my kids.

I do this sometimes (well, more than sometimes ) I just wait for the rug rats to go to bed!! I have icecream for dinner sometimes too!

Re: Just some things i thought of...add your own
My personal favorites:
Never have to wait/miss going on a roller coaster because of baby sitting duties
Don't have to share my wii
Don't have to put parental controls on the TV or internet
Never having to set the example: make my bed, watching my language, farting
Not having to leave parties early (or for that matter not having to come home at all!!)
