how well do you know them is it safe for your child to spend the night there.some parents are mean to there on kids what make you think they would not be mean to yours.do your child tell everything that goes on there. make sure you know where you are leaving your child.have a heart to heart when they get home kids are smart.

this is good that way you have control on what goes on there at your house and you know what will go on while they are there.

We almost always had sleep overs here at our house. There are a few people that I trust with my children and they are people that I "know". To much can happen that makes me nervous. Our children also knew our number and could call at any time for us to come get them if they wanted us.

that good i notice you said people that you know this tells me you have to know them if they are going to keep your children not just meeting them for the first 3 times.

I have always been protective in fact sometimes over-protective of my son. There was never an instance that I allowed him to sleep in other people's house. I want my family to be intact during the night. I can't sleep well if one of the members would be out. Children need guidance and letting them sleep in other people's house shows lack of care. Perhaps I could allow that if he would sleep in my sister or brother's house but only when I and my hubby would be out during the whole night for very important or urgent matter.

we do try to protect our child however even in family members house sometimes is not good unless they practice treating your child as you would yourself.

as a matter of fact everyone will know because it doesn,t just stay in the house whatever is learned in the home will effect every hearer of this person.teaching this child would exceed the home.

I didn't allow my children to spend the night at friends houses until I met and knew their parents. My kids so hated that but I never gave in. You are correct in saying that you don't really know what people will do that is why I didn't just "meet" the parents but had to "know" them.

it,s good to know the people your child will spent the night with so if a emergency do happen to happen they would call you first and not far most.
