'Mom, dad, can I sleepover at my friend's house next week?' 'Sleep-what? You can be with them all day, why do you need to sleep in their house? Why can't they come here?...' A lot more questions follow that. From the experience of teens, more often than not, parents believe that you should play out all day and come back to your house to sleep. It's not a bad philosophy. You don't really lose out of not sleeping over at your friend's house. A huge pro is, when you are older, hopefully, you'll sleep in your own house most of the time, which is a great way to remain safe.
Sometimes it's just for peace. Some of us naturally don't like conflict. But whoever you're arguing with may just be so narrow-minded and we all know someone like that😏but we just need to find a way to get our point to him or her in a more peaceful way
