Sorry, the custodial parent sets the rules - and the custodial parent is fine with it.
No, both parents set the rules.
Whoever the kid is with sets the rules.
Sounds like the kid should have been with Dad and if not, sounds better off with Dad than mom or OP.
It sounds that way to you because your intelligence and emotional development was stunted in adolescence

Not sure why everyone is getting mad at the OP letting the girl visit until 9:30. It is not like she is holding the girl hostage. Her parents can make a different rule. My kid has tons of homework but I know lots of teens that do not.
Maybe the girlfriend’s dad has a problem with her new found after school hobby, and let her know
Hanging out until 9:30 at boyfriend’s (or any friend’s) house regularly during the week; loafing, watching movies,
playing video games wouldn’t be ok with me as a parent. That would mean what they aren’t doing is homework, studying, working a job, playing sports

(I actually think letting her stay at your house till 9:30pm on school nights is pretty horrible.)
The girl is 17, not 12.

I would have called her mom or asked her to call her mom.
Sorry, you're not a parent if you live an hour away and rarely see your kid. He may be her father but he's not parenting her. You're basically the equivalent of uncle frank that everyone see's twice a year a thanksgiving and easter.
