Would you host a sleepover 2 days before leaving for vacation?

Same here. But we have a small old house where sound easily travels so if they are up all night all of us would hear it. Even with normal talking or baking in the night.

I don’t want to be extra sleep deprived right before vacation because of this.

Why would they be up all night?! You’re the adult! Just tell them at whatever time, they need to lay down and go to bed. You are in control, not the 13 year olds.

These are 13 yo old kids, not early elementary. Not many of us are giving them a lights out time. They are in middle school. Of course most will be up all night at a sleep over. This is why we don’t host them. By kids are much older than this now but this made me laugh.

Exactly, they're 13. If my DD asks for a sleepover on a night when they don't have school the next day, but I have work, I tell her she can only if they're asleep and quiet by midnight. She's old enough to know that if she doesn't comply, then she won't be allowed to have a sleepover the next time she asks.

That’s good if it works for you. Many of us just say to to sleepovers on work nights. No way am I doing that.

Yes.

I would not because it would mess with mine and teens sleep and that would be a problem for me starting vacation. I would host them for dinner or movie or take them to a restaurant and then home by 10.

I wouldn’t even do that because I’d be packing the night before.
