[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This sounds like a bad idea unless you are willing to continue hosting co ed sleepovers. As a parent you are like hte supreme court. Everything you do is setting a precedent. Of course you can shut the whole thing down later if you want to but it will just be a lot harder. THink about the long game. [/quote] Agree with this. At 6 it's no big deal (except most kids are too young to handle a big group sleepover at 6 anyway--but that's another issue), but if you start now, at some point you'll have to say "no we're not doing that anymore" and your explanation will seem accusatory and suspicious. Like somehow at the magic age of 12 you no longer "trust" your kid to be at a co-ed sleepover. We all know that it isn't about "trust" but about impulse control, hormones, etc. It will still feel like an accusation to your kid, so easier to just keep it consistent.[/quote]
