12 Year Old Sleepover?

RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By KATY (Guest Post) (11/30/2008) This sounds really fun. Maybe if your child has a brother the boys can sleep in his room? and keep checking on them but don't make anyone feel unconformable. Thanks Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Maybe a kiss or 2 if I've been going out with her for a while. I cant believe you parents would even think we would get laid. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

If a boy that is at the sleepover really likes the girl he would probably persuade her to do stuff that kids shouldn't be doing at 12. P.S I'm twelve and actually think in my right mind.

CONSIDER THIS Post By Katie (Guest Post) (02/14/2008) I am 13 and I think you should first ask your daughter why she wants to have a coed sleepover. Then ask her which people she may invite. Think about the people she has suggested and talk to their parents about it too. This may help you to make your decision. Personally I don't think this is a good idea even at the age of 13. Sure she is going to want to do a mixed sleepover sometime - but at her age why not just all go to the movies or bowling instead? If you encourage a mixed sleepover at this a ge you may send the wrong message and you don't want to be responsible even if something happens a year later!- which is still young. In Conclusion just hold back on the coed sleepover for now, I think she is trying to grow up too fast for her body and age! Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Remember to not be so judgmental when it comes to age and sex differences. I'm sure all the kids there are responsible enough not to get themselves into any trouble. If you know your daughter, than you know that she won't invite people who will ruin your house or get one of the girls(or your daughter) pregnant. That's WAY too fast for their age. They know better. Go for it and see how it turns out. Good luck! Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By No Name (Guest Post) (02/01/2008) I'm no parent, but I do have a lot of experience with this kinda stuff. It all depends on what kind of kids are coming. Don't invite any kids who do bad things or start gossip, that would be a very bad idea. It also depends on if your child knows people who might start gossip about her or her friends. The last thing you want is the principal calling and asking if your daughter has had you-know-what. Hope this helps! Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

I'm tuning 13 next month and i know how 12 year olds think. i know what your worried about but honestly, the closest we get to any of that is just joking around. they might be pecks on the cheek for, like truth or dare, but at twelve, no one thinks much of it. honestly, the longer you wait the more chances something will happen. 12 is a really good time for this, because they're comfortable around each other, but not too comfortable. just make sure you know who shes inviting and make sure you meet all their parents at the door to make sure everyones comfortable and don't let her invite anyone over a year older or younger than her to make sure no one rubs their age on anyone else. good luck!

Post By fergus (Guest Post) (11/21/2007) Just wondering if they are in separate rooms, what's the point of the sleepover like whats the difference between that and them going home? I reckon just let the opposite sex stay till like 10 or 11, and supervised to this point, and then they go home. Also don't just leave them alone in like the basement, or something go do something then you know nothing going to happen. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By Person (Guest Post) (11/09/2007) I think it would be just fine. I will be 12 soon, this month in case you're wondering. I think if you check up on them every once in a while it would be fine. Make sure everybody is in there own sleeping bag. And if you trust your daughter I think it will be a fun experience for her. Sure there may be some kissing involved, but at 12 most likely all it will be is a peck on the cheek or maybe even some lip action. It won't be a total make-out session. Don't freak if you find them playing spin the bottle. It's perfectly natural for them to do something like that. That's exactly what will happen if I have a boy girl party for my birthday. And if you feel uncomfortable about them having a sleep over with all genders then make the boys go home at a certain time like 1:00 AM or something.

Boys' want a lot of different things these days and you don't know if she might be up to something with this sleepover of hers. I think you should ask her why she wants to have a boy/girl sleepover. Is it a boy, peer pressure, or what? These are the things you need to know before this so called sleepover happens. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By kristen (Guest Post) (10/17/2007) That's a good question. I'm 12 and I have been to a co-ed sleepover. It depends on how much you trust your daughter. No matter how much ppl might say that they are only 12, sex is a common thing that kids talk about and joke about. An 8th grader at my school had an abortion and she is only a year older. When I went to my co-ed sleepover it turned out fine. Everyone got kissed because we played spin the bottle but at 12 it is something that is going to happen eventually in middle school. I have to admit though if it weren't for everyone falling asleep by 4 in the morning, things were getting a little out of hand when we were talking about making out and stuff and a couple people did but there was only like 8 people but I can guarantee that these people were like our friends and some of them bfs. They aren't gonna lose there virginity yet. Most kids are smart enough to wait. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

You should be creative and think of somewhere fun to sleep. Like a tent or even a basement. That's what I think. Play some sports like kickball, basketball, soccer, or even football.

Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post by Lorelei (209) | (08/22/2007) Profile | Contact I don't believe it's a good idea to merge box sexes of young people in a sleepover. This is a subtle way of introducing children prematurely into the world of experimenting with the opposite sex in what is suppose to be under the safety net of the home front. Times have changed a lot, but no way would I have wanted to have a boy see me in my pjs at that age let alone waking up and them seeing a disheveled appearance. I think this idea is only asking for problems down the road in dealing with hormones and the teenage years are difficult for them as it is with boundary lines and the opposite sex and I wouldn't want to encourage my child or anyone elses in starting early to merge both sexes in an overnight sleeping experience. The task of good parenting skills is to guide children away from perils and not into them. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Let her have it and if you suspect anything, keep a careful eye on the situation, and if anything happens, call his parents to collect him and tell them why. Then stop all contact with this boy.

But of course, If i was a parent i wouldn't let them sleep in the same room. Maybe one of the parents should sleep in between the rooms. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Coed sleeping parties only lead to situations that you are going to wish that never happened... Co-ed sleeping parties are a bad enough idea of 10 yr olds nevermind 12 (i should know, Iwas 12 two yrs ago!) Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By (Guest Post) (12/10/2006) You are her mother and if you think its a bad idea, then tell her no. She is much too young to be having co-ed sleepovers, this will only reinforce sexual behavior and that it is acceptable at their age. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Unless you want to take total responsibility for what could happen on that one night and possibly the doors that opens in the future I wouldn't think twice about it. Bad, bad idea and any parent that says it's okay I would question their parenting skills. I hope you make a good decision on this one, it could be life changing for lots of people.

I remember when I was 12, and I think most parents do too....Better to go with Zoombit's idea with an all night Skate or something. Always keep some supervision involved, it is too easy to sneak off! If it is something with planned activities to keep them busy, fine, but not a "sleepover." Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

I mean, my brother had a B/G sleepover for his 14th birthday, but they had to sleep in separate rooms, because they were that sort of age, but they wreaked havock and nearly got sent home.

If there not like troublemakers then let the boys come over for pizza, cake, and ice cream then have only the girls stay over for the night.

Post By Mc Curly Q 122 (Guest Post) (03/02/2006) um i am 12 and it mostly depends on do you knowthis kid or what i would say no personally because a lot things that are going on in the 12 year world is Making out (or the pressure to do so) touching people and other bad things it may seem like you trust your child a lot but behind the scenes it is way different. if you know this boy and he is a good family friend and you have known his parents for a long time then i would say yes trust is a huge matter here well thank you Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By Lana_422 (Guest Post) (02/27/2006) No you shouldn't do it. It's not that they may have sex or anything, but when u think of a sleepover u think of 12 year olds dancing, and singing to Usher in thier underwear. If I would have a boy/Girl sleepover I wouldn't feel comfortable at all! It was okay when they wore five, but 12 no, no, no. But maybe if she has a lot of friends that r boys then maybe she can have a b-day at your house, and then a Sleepover with ONLY GIRLS after that, but I have two girls. One's 13, and she wants a boy/girl sleepover, but thats totally out of the question! Mixing Boys and Girls is like mixing Apple and oranges. Water and Oil. You can't mix the two. Plus boys and girls don't like to do the same things. Girls like to sit around and talk about hot guys while boys like to go get into trouble. Girls like to watch Chick flicks and movies that make u cry while Boys like to watch Action and Gory movies. Girls like to have pillow fights while boys like to wrestle and beat each other. I would say NEVER EVER LET YOUR DAUGHTER HAVE A BOY/GIRL SLEEPOVER! Lana Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Post by Denise2003 (9) | (09/23/2005) Contact Trust is not the issue here. It is inappropriate to allow boys to sleep over-- even if "nothing" happens. I can understand why some of the children advised you to say yes-- they are not yet able to make a sound judgement. What I can't understand is why any of the adults would agree. I guess growing up doesn't always result in common sense. You are setting yourself and your daughter up for trouble if you allow it. Like I said, even if "nothing" happens, there is still gossip to contend with. I don't ordinarily advise people to do something just to avoid gossip, but this situation would be so scandalous that you can expect it to be discussed in impolite society for years. It can easily destroy a young girl to be talked about like that. Gossip is deadly and I wouldn't encourage anyone to gossip about your child by setting her up for it. Moral issues aside, having boys at a sleepover-- even at 16 or 17-- really does invite trouble. At 12 it invites disaster. 12 year olds still don't know just how bad the pressure can get, and they aren't prepared to say no should the situation arise. They may think they can, and they may be determined to do what they know they should. But their experience levels aren't in agreement yet. It's not a matter of trust-- even the best kids can get caught in an unexpected situation and find themselves less in control of their own actions than they thought they were. It takes years to learn how to resist powerful urges like a full blown sex drive, so even good kids need to be careful. It is better for you to sit down with your daughter and explain to her that having the boys stay overnight is not a good idea. Girls need time to just be with other girls anyway. It is an important part of their development. There are some good suggestions here. I would use them. It is good that your daughter wants to spend some time with boys in a social situation. This should be encouraged. But I suggest you politely escort the boys to the door when it is getting to be time to change into pajamas. Your daughter might even thank you-- if not immediately then later. Denise Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By Tracey (Guest Post) (09/21/2005) It all depends on how much you trust your child. Like if she/he is always getting in trouble, than the answer is no. If your son/daughter is always on the safe side than you might consider it (with the boys in another room of course). **Tracey, CHILD care advice** Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Post By Emily (Guest Post) (08/27/2005) I am just about to turn 12 in two weeks and I am also having a sleepover but with just girls. My advice is to let her have boys and girls come over but at night the boys would go home so it would just be a girl sleepover but the boys would atleast get to be there for a little while. Your daughter is getting older and might need a little more freedom, just don't give her too much freedom. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By prttnpnk11 (Guest Post) (08/27/2005) if you trust your daughter you should let her do it. otherwise your sending the message that you dont trust her. like some others said, you could always have the girls sleep inside and the boys sleep outside in a tent. it's not like all they think about is sex. how do you know these aren't her best friends and she just wants them to sleep over like girls do? hey listen i am 12 and i would love to have my guy friends sleep over. most of my friends are guys so i guess you could say that i dont have very many sleep overs. my parenst trust me but i haven't asked them yet and i plan to tonight. i think they'll say yes and let me. they trust me 100% and i would never do anything to loose that trust. maybe your daugter feels the same way. dont forget, you could always check in on them every 30 minutes or so. its not like you're going to have to leave the house.

Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By AnaMarie (Guest Post) (08/06/2005) No, is the best answer. Girls and boys at the age of twelve are all so exited about their first kiss with boys. They all want to play 7 minutes in heaven and truth or dare and it might get too extreme. Just don't risk it. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover? Post By Ashley (Guest Post) (08/01/2005) No would probably be the best answer. As to all the people that say no because of the boys, the girls are just as likely to start something these days. Just keep that in mind when you are answering. I just graduated HS and you wouldn't believe how common it was for the girl to start something. The reputation thing is right, but girls can also ruin other girl's if they are jealous. Don't mean to make anyone mad, Just wanted to let you know what happens in the schools from somebody who is there all the time. Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?

Post By Tomoko (Guest Post) (07/26/2005) Ok I am 14 and though I have a Boy Friend, I would N E V E R even dream of him or any of my other guy friends spend the night. Also I have been invited to one of my guy friends parties because they see me as "one of the guys" if you know what I mean, so i went to the party part but left at about 8ish. So if I were in your position,I would say no one she is only 12 there is no way she is old enough to have a boy friend let alone a boy girl sleep over. You are the mom. My mom and I are really close and I trust her jugdement. Maybe you and your daughter can make a comprimise, meet in the middle. My guy friends understand that I am not able to spend the night with them, they just give me full recaps in emails or at lunch. So you need to stand your ground, but if the guys that your daughter want to spend the night are truly her friends, they will understand that she is not able to have guys spend the night. ~Tomoko~ Report Spam or Abuse RE: 12 Year Old Sleepover?
