Then, my brother walked in on me and him making on laying down on my bed, and now they don't let him and me in my room even with the door open. Your lucky if your girlfriend can even come in your room. My parents let him sleep over at my house on New Years Eve, because they were too drunk to take him home. He slept in a different room, but I went into his bed at 6 AM to sleep with him. I'd say eighteen, but if your parents are strict maybe earlier. :) [ kenidean's advice column | Ask kenidean A Question ]

I know mine would not allow it until I move out of the house. (around 18.)Haha...even if you say you are just "cuddling", it doesn't matter to parents. Anything and everything is about sex when you're 14. Which is probably also way too young to be getting into a real exclusive relationship, if you don't mind me saying so. Because sometimes you think you'll just cuddle and kiss, but believe me, sometimes it goes too far and gets blown out of proportion.

LagunaBabe answered Friday January 26 2007, 4:33 am: Well, I think this depends on many factors. Mostly, on how much your parents trust you. And trusting the girl, may come in to hand as well. And even then, it would be pretty unlikely for them to allow it. If you have a close relationship with your parents, I don't see the harm in asking, all they can do is say no.
As far as just an age, it's very hard to estimate. But if they would let you or someone in general, only considering age. I would say much older than you, such as seventeen or eighteen-years-old. [ LagunaBabe's advice column | Ask LagunaBabe A Question ]
queenhearts answered Friday January 26 2007, 1:45 am: I doubt they want their kid in a bed with a girl. Even if you aren't having sex.. it's a bit uncomfortable.
I'll say 18 or.. not at your parents house...
Maybe when you get your own place? Apartment or something.
I guess you could be at your house during the day.. and plan a little sleep over.
Brandi_S answered Friday January 26 2007, 1:07 am: Well, my mom and dad say NEVER. I'm 28 years old, you know. It is a respect thing not to share your room/bed with your sweetie under their roof. [ Brandi_S's advice column | Ask Brandi_S A Question ]
Erronius answered Friday January 26 2007, 12:52 am: I'd say 18. Some might go younger like 16 or 17. Good luck at 14, unless your parents are either naive or incredibly easygoing.
You say it isn't to have sex now, but when the two of you are in bed together "just snuggling" one thing will often lead to another. Lets just say it might come to depend on the two of you being able to say no.
I'd be surprised if any post-pubescent teenager could spend an entire night in the arms of a GF/BF and not become aroused. Good luck just "snuggling". Having to choose between sex and sexual frustration is a horrible choice, I'd advise you to avoid the sleeping together. Thats like taking someone on a diet and putting them in a room full of chocolate cake, only worse. [ Erronius's advice column | Ask Erronius A Question ]
LadyH answered Friday January 26 2007, 12:51 am: I'd say a majority of parents would be more comfortable with that when their kid turned 18. 18 is kind of an age where you start getting most of your legal freedom (& freedom in your house, if you don't have it already). But it all depends on the parents. Some are obviously more lenient with that stuff while others would never THINK about allowing their 18+ year olds to have their boyfriends or girlfriends spend the night.
