Same here.

If a kid needs special nighttime underwear then they aren’t ready for a sleepover in our house. I am not dealing with that.

Usually when the parents are to drunk to drive

We never ever allow any sleepovers. Impossible to guarantee safety. YMMV.

What kinds of things do kids actually do at sleepovers now besides go to sleep?

All the time. They are usually the only kind we do

Rarely. I hate sleepovers. I want to be a cool mom and like them, but my ADHD poor sleeper child has ADHD poor sleeper friends who distract each other and try to stay up all night and then I don't sleep and then I get mad and no.

I'm trying to teach her that if there's actually sleep involved I wouldn't mind very much.

My son has impromptu sleepovers with his BFF quite regularly. She's our neighbor so she usually just has to run home to get her stuff.

Same. And we are/were frequent hosts. I used to buy toothbrushes for $1 each on Amazon and keep a box in my bathroom closet.

Toothbrush and switch in our house.

How often do you allow impromptu sleepovers? By that I mean doing an sleepover without prior plans to have one. Anything other than maybe a toothbrush that kid really needs?
