DD is 14. Her best friend is having a sleepover for her (15th) birthday. The group is birthday girl, my DD and one other girl plus 5 boys.
I have said no to staying all night but she can go provided my DH collects her at 1.00am.
DD is not happy and says we are giving her no freedom . I've said I do trust her but I can remember what 15 old boys are like her boyfriend will be there. I haven't actually said BF is a walking bag of hormones but I think it.
Have I been fair? BTW the parents are good friends and I have spoken to them to explain why DD will not be staying overnight. They are confident they are all good kids and nothing will happen. I think they are being too trusting and they sleep 2 floors above where the teens will be. The parents do intend to sleep, not patrol all night.
Anyone got any thoughts on this. Am I being reasonable with compromise or just old fashioned?
