[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We don’t allow sleepovers, period. Why are people so outraged and appalled by a “no” to sleepovers? It’s bizarre.

My kids have traveled with school groups and sports, gone out of town with relatives, etc. We can easily say a simple “no, sorry” to a party or anything else as needed, but no to a sleepover in a private home is met with “oh no! why not?! what other dates work?!” from other parents and their kids. I just don’t get why it is so important and why such a big push for these events.[/quote]

They’re not important.

We noticed n the girl side the only children families got obsessed with them as a way to force friendships but come middle school interests took over,  it that.

We have hosted or attended sleepovers to help facilitate a tricky sports schedule or joint vacation or new baby being born, etc. But having a kid sleep over just be HSs ur and then be an unhealthy zombie the next day- or two!- No thanks.

In high school it was event based sleeping over and everyone was serious about sleeping before the tournament or early bus departure. [/quote]
