[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A bit of a tough call.  Ask if he thinks his friends will care.  Let him decide.  But my suggestion would be to go without.  Yes, its a big step but he's probably old enough to take it.  [/quote]

Why? What's the plus side of not taking it? I don't get this debate at all. Ask your child what he wants to take OP[/quote]

OP, my almost 9 yo ds has had a few sleepovers with a neighborhood friend. The last time he went I asked him if he was taking his (stuffed) dog and he said no. He clearly has gotten the message that the lovey is not for public display because it otherwise is always with him at night.  It's a delicate subject and I'm glad I didn't have to suggest he not bring it. [/quote]

This.  Kids can be mean.  It doesn't mean its right but depending on the peer group, it could be a horrible experience.  Talk to your son, he might be okay with leaving it at home.  [/quote]
