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


I personally would be thankful that a kid was wearing a pull-up. Don’t be so judgmental.

Our oldest is in fourth (the other two are first and prek, so too young) and we haven’t had a sleepover! He has tons of close friends who are over here/he’s over there all the time, but it’s just not big in our social circle. I’m starting to think it’s a blessing. It also seems in our social circle it’s more common with the girls.

Yikes. I bet you're fun at parties.

To the OP's question,

We allow them whenever we don't have weekend plans (which, if I'm honest, is somewhat rare). I prefer the kids stay at our house, but I'm also fine with letting DS stay over at his friends'. He only has 2 right now that are close enough to do sleepovers with, and he does them frequently. Just coordinate with parents to make sure it's alright ahead of time.
