Staying over at boyfriends


Question Posted Sunday May 14 2006, 4:44 pm

Okay so this is the deal: In a couple of weeks my boyfriend (of 6 months) has a free house because his family are going on holiday, and we wanted to try and use this to spend a couple of nights together, his parents have said it's okay for me to stay as long as my parents are aware they are not going to be there. Normally my parents don't have a problem with me staying over when his parents are there because they make me sleep in a different room... But I'm not sure how they will react to this as they will probably look at it as a route to sex or something...even though I am legal anyway... any ideas on the best way to put the question across?
We are both 17.
Thanks for your attention, I will rate for your time :)

You should tell your parents that you are going to be at your boyfriend's house, and that nothing will be going on, that you two just want to spend time together.

That's what couples do, right?

They should understand, and respect your decision. If they know you are focusing on your grades and education, they should trust you on letting you go.

Just tell them your now a responsible young adult that is smart enough to be thinking about sex before marriage.

Hope I helped. =]

I don't agree that it will be okay to lie and say you are staying with friends. You will only end up digging yourself a bigger hole. Try and be honest about your decisions. If you are going to be having sex then make sure you use precautions.

As to how you can approach your parents - well I suggest you be open and honest with them. They won't be happy that you are taking this big step because like most parents they don't like to think of their children growing up and having sex. Do a bit of research about contraceptives and present the findings to your parents. Show them that you are making adult decisions and they may accept their little girl is now a young woman.

Good luck with the outcome.

be honest with your parents, if you lie, you will only screw yourself in the long run. your parents will be glad that you were honest, even if they aren't happy with what you say. i had a similar situation with my boyfriend when i was 17, only we went to his grandparents lakehouse for the forth of july, well, i told my parents that there was a good chance we would be sharing a bed, my mom said she wouldn't be happy if i had sex, but it wouldn't be the end of the world. my dadf said, just be smart about it if you are going to do it. everything was okay. um, if you aren't as open with your parents then i agree with the person who answered your question before me. good luck
