[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dh and I are gay dads with twin elementary age daughters.  They haven't been invited to or asked about inviting others to sleepovers, but probably will this year.  After reading another thread about no sleepovers with the father present, I said something to dh, who stated that it was normal.  I then commented that such a restriction obviously would not apply to us and he disagreed saying that he thought many kids would not stay at our house since we would be there with them.

So, would you let your daughter sleep over at a house where the father was there?
If not (or if not, if only the father) would you feel different if the dads were gay?[/quote]

I have never heard of no sleepovers if the father is present. I'm a dad, and we host sleepovers frequently. In fact, to my chagrin, dd is hankering for one tonight.

I have been more wary of older brothers.

I cannot imagine gay partners bothering me since gay has nothing to do with pedophilia. Only issue would be comfort level with you as individuals -- if I don't know you, I'm going to have more hesitation than if I do. [/quote]
