[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When your teenager has their bf or gf over, where do they hang out? Where are you? How often do you interact with them/make your presence known? 
My oldest (daughter) has her first boyfriend and it sounds like they have a lot of plans to hang out over the upcoming break. DH and I both had very hands off parents so we are trying to figure out the balance of giving them space/privacy but also wanting to make sure things dont go too far.[/quote]

At first when DD got her 1st BF, they were only allowed to hang out in the living room or kitchen. No upstairs rooms/private rooms, and absolutely no doors closed.  At some point the next year when she had her 2nd BF, we got to know him well and at some point we allowed them in her room or the basement but again no closed doors for a long while. NO overnights, none. We also always tried to meet their parents and check in on rules in their houeshold (or absence of rules) so we knew where we were with her going over to his house.[/quote]
