Navigating Divorced Parents' Strict Clothing Rules: A Teen's Dilemma

TL;DR Summary
An 18-year-old grandson, who splits his time between his divorced parents, is subject to strict clothing rules where items purchased by one parent must stay at that parent's house. Amy advises labeling clothes and helping the teen organize them when moving between homes, but also suggests that the arrangement seems needlessly controlling for an older teen. She recommends the grandson stick it out until he graduates from high school and potentially chooses to go away for college, where he can escape the burden of shuttling between two sets of parents.
