[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My HS kid and group of 4 boys are constantly at one house or another, and sleep overs planned at the last minute. Why does this bother you so much? Let go and let them make their own plans - as long as you touch base with and know/trust the parents and the kids, it's fine. Freeing actually, because they are finally in charge of their own schedules instead of you. MS daughter does the same. Every once in a while they both and up sleeping over and DH and I have our own date night! More often, as soon as one finds out the other won't be home, the sleep over for the other is at our home...[/quote] Same. My teen didnt do sleepovers at all in 9th grade and I thought whew, they outgrew it! This summer BAM - 4 boys all the time. They get up early to go to work or drivers ed or sports and repeat. Two have girlfriends who leave at a normal hour. No coed sleepovers but boys are facetiming with them and their friends until 1 am and then pass out. Thankfully by HS they are great at keeping things neat, wet towels are washed and dried and while I have lots of ready to go food/snacks they help themselves and load dishwasher etc. And when the girls are here they bake lol. I get to indulge and girls give me the gossip. So, there's an upside! [/quote] This is us too. I worry about zero things. I have a pile of blankets and pillows in the basement, but don't worry about pajamas, sleeping bags, toothbrushes. I 'think' they sleep in there clothes or underwear, but they are old enugh to figure it out. I don't check with the other moms, just ask to make sure they've asked. Sometimes the other moms will text, sometimes not. As long as they don't wake me up and clean up their mess in the morning I like that I know where they are! Now, this is summer. During school, no.[/quote]
