[quote=Anonymous]My 13 year old DS is in middle school and I have not met many of his new friends. I am encouraging get-togethers, etc. hosted by us or have me drive them to the movies, so I can meet these kids. We are a fairly fun family. My kids have earned a fair degree of independence over the years, so I would not say we/I "hover." Over the past month, my DS has received several invites for sleepovers by kids I have never met with parents I have never met. I say no, my husband disagrees. I would like to meet the kids first, know the families and then feel comfortable saying yes, but until we are at that point, I say No, no way. My DS is fairly responsible on his own, but he is VERY susceptible to peer pressure...maybe they all are, I just know mine is right now. I am interested in "letting go", I just don't think right this second is that right time. What do we think?[/quote]
