I am thinking I might want to let him have some sleepovers (at our house, relatives, and close by neighbors) while he is young. They seem fairly innocent. I feel once they hit 10, they are nothing but trouble. I appreciate all the comments, keep them coming- I will continue to think this one out.Stephanie Balvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03577038018491053649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20757333.post-68157212432694817982010-04-06T14:11:33.456-05:002010-04-06T14:11:33.456-05:00I'm in total agreement with you.

But maybe you could host one someday, so he still gets the experience but you are still in the loop.The Charleboishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04301218615305191791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20757333.post-75056689917448720572010-04-06T00:25:36.295-05:002010-04-06T00:25:36.295-05:00First of all - I can't believe Jake is 6.5!!

Nicolai had his FIRST sleepover just a couple of weekends ago - He's TEN!! AND the sleepover happened at our house!<br /><br />If I don't know the parents well or well enough to trust them, then the answer will always be no and sleepovers can happen at our home but only because I'm the parent who will ask to talk with the other parent and make sure they know us and have all of our contact information. And will make sure the kids are in bed and sleeping by at least ten - there's no reason to be up later! It's amazing how many parents don't talk to the other and they just drop their kid without any question or getting to know the other! I'm still baffled by that!! I didn't have the child call home, but he finally asked to - and so then he did. That is something in the future I will make sure happens that the kids staying over - call home! That's at least my plan for the next three years or so - who knows what will happen when he becomes a teen!! yikes!!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14408881908228138037noreply@blogger.com
