Hello, I'm new to the group. My name is Beth and I'm recently remarried. We have blended our families for a grand total of 8 kids but 2 of fully out of the house (age 22 and 21). Ages are 18, 17, 16, 14, 13, 12. We only have 1 child living with us fulltime and he's 18. The kids spend 50% times with us and 50% time with their Mom and Dad.
My 17 year ask if she could sleep over her boyfriend's house. She would sleep on the couch and his parents are home and are ok with this. I'm not for it at all but I'm will to consider other view points. I appreciate your feedback! Thanks!
At that age,I wasn't having sex yet. It pissed me off my parents didn't trust me. Fact was, if I wanted to have sex we knew where we could go in broad daylight.
They have known each other for about 2 years. They dated for a year and broke up for about 9 months. He was recently diagnosed w/cancer and is in treatments. His life and changed pretty drastically given his treatments now. So he doesn't see most of his friends. It's pretty sad but nonetheless I'm not really keen on having her sleep there since it's just totally against my values. I'd never allow a boyfriend to sleepover our house unless the weather was bad and it was a rare occurence. I'm more annoyed that the parents even put the idea out there and now I have to be the bad guy saying NO.
NOPE.
My friend's son got a girl friend pregnant while she was at their house. It really doesn't take much. Parents sleep, shower whatever. I know I had sex with my boyfriend while my parents were home too. So no, no boys over, and she's not going to be at a boy's house.
If you're fine with her being active, then it's not a problem, but if you expect her to refrain from sex... then it's best for her to not spend the night.
Advice on my defiant teen daughter please!
