Sleepovers… Should You or Shouldn’t You?
Its the age-old question, but like most things in life, there simply isnt one right way to do things when it comes to our kids. Sleepovers can be a fun rite of childhood passage. Personally, I can remember some terrific (and safe!) slumber parties with my close friends. These experiences were part of a wonderful childhood, and many parents would like their own kids to be able to enjoy the same. Yet, sleepovers can also be a slippery slope just by their very nature, and its certainly appropriate for parents to have legitimate concerns. Weve all heard stories about children being molested while at a sleepover. And yet many other children will enjoy sleepovers without anything bad ever happening. Instead of offering one absolute about sleepovers, my perspective is sometimes yes and sometimes no.
