[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are being a little silly. My girls have friends sleep over almost every weekend. And they have two older teen brothers. It seems like we always have a house full of kids. I couldn't have provided you a list of who was sleeping over because I usually didn't even know. Teenage boys don't have "sleepovers"....they just "crash" at whatever house has the best food. [/quote]

A parent who actually doesn't even know who is sleeping over at their own house? PP, you sound desperate to be considered the "cool parent". You could be harboring a kid who is using your lax supervision to engage in high risk behavior. My BIL (a really great, loving dad) spent the last year of his DS life trying to keep him from running away (just disappearing, going AWOL) over to his BF's house. The parent's house was well known as the party house--they were the cool parents who allowed drinking, girls to come over, etc. BIL son drank and smoked dope his entire senior year--he would come home for a few weeks and then disappear to the friend's house for days. He failed to graduate from HS and has yet to go back for his GED. My BIL is a respected, successful research scientist--his wife is a SAHM--they live in an upscale DC suburb. It would make me so angry to hear of this other family where all the boys "crashed". Parents like you make it nearly impossible to enforce any kind of reasonable standard of behavior with teens. Are you just so rich and bored in some huge mansion that you don't care? I mean, come on, how do you not know who is sleeping in your house?[/quote]
