<p>Sleepovers are nothing new. They&#8217;ve been around since before I was born. All kids want to go to them, because it&#8217;s supposed to be fun and exciting. I remember begging my mother to attend at least five different sleepovers and each time I was a met with a big fat NO.<span id="more-514"></span></p>
<p>Recently my daughter was invited to a sleepover at a hotel for her schoolmate&#8217;s 11th birthday party. I knew the moment I saw the invitation the answer would be &#8220;sorry, you can&#8217;t go&#8221;. My daughter is very aware of the rule that she can&#8217;t spend the night at friends houses, but because it was at hotel, to a twelve year old this required a different conversation. For me as a parent it is a flat &#8220;no&#8221; regardless.</p>
<p>My daughter is not allowed to spend the night outside our home. I explain here in my article <strong><a href="http://www.sheknows.com/parenting/articles/1100569/why-i-don-t-allow-my-children-to-go-to-sleepovers" target="_blank">&#8220;Why I Don&#8217;t Allow My Children to Go to Sleepovers&#8221; on She Knows Experts</a></strong></p>
