My 7 year grand daughter has been having sleepovers at her friends house for two years!
My daughter's also had 'mixed' sleepovers from about the age of 8.
When they had them in their teens - everyone slept downstairs in sleeping bags on the living room floor - and the loo is downstairs - through the living room.

Guess who had a 'bladder' problem on those nights!! LOL

Hi Muffy
lol I know how u feel hun, cant say it gets any easier as they get older, mine r 16, 14, 13 and 11 and i still worry when they go out! think i prefered it when they were little and just played in garden lol

Well mine is 48 this year and I still want to know where she is, what she is doing etc and she lives an hour and a half away so she could tell me anything!!!
And then there are the Grandchildren, boy it hurts when they grow up and are not children any more!

*croaks* yeah so hard Sue :0(

I think i'll have to have one of my music nights to take my mind off it all lol xx

The first time is the hardest, Muffy.

It'll be ok, I'm sure

Hard to do, though, isn't it?

Sue x

Not quite Kay lol

Joy........I've been guilty of that up til now and I'm making myself let go.......honest lol xx

Thanks Mummo xx

Shell be fine and really enjoy it,, as long as it doesnt turn into an every weekend at different peoples houses.........

bet you been looking at ebay for a ankle tag....:}}}}}}}}}}

WE AS MUMS
also have to let our children find their way in life
there's a fine line between

protecting and smothering

Muffy at the end of the day joking aside your a good mum and we all hate the thought of our littlins growing up, but your doing everything right so pat on the back.

Yeah she's a sensible girl Ann.......and as far as I'd trust a 9 yr old I'd trust her lol ...and the mother has 3 older daughters who are as good as gold......HARD to let go though xx

I am sure it does them good, builds their confidence to be away from you for a night. We never had anything like it when our children were young but I have watched Grandsons go through it. As you've all said, as long as you know the mother and trust her.

You have a deal stray lol.

Thank you Kay.......MWAH ....i'm with you on that .......thing is.......she has a school trip in the next school year where she will be away for 5 nights and I think this is good practise for that.PLUS I have never pushed her to do anything like this.....always left it to her to tell me she is ready.

The clincher is her friend has a new kitten ......and knowing that I've put the block on any more cats........that's the hook lol xx

lol ill come down n go with them lol
i was in charge when me neice wanted to go out underage haha
and im sure i wil when donkey gets "ov age" lololol

Oh Muffs tell her I said NO she cant go...........:}}

I never let mine go to any till they left school:}}}}}}}

*wonders if she can bribe *mam* down to go clubbing with my lot* lol xx

to be honest shes always been a "cool" mum so it was ok
we had a screammmmmmmmmmm

Sounds reasonable to me hon........I think your mum has every right to chaperone you now tbh pmsl xx
