okay well my 2 very close friends ( both guys) are joining the military so they've been in training basically all summer.. my friend is having a party for them when they come home in august and it's supposed to be a sleepover. there will be 3 girls & 3 guys.. 2 of which are boyfriend & girlfriend. one problem, my mom doesn't agree with coed sleepovers and doesn't think it's necessary. i really want to go because i haven't seen them in so long! nothing would happen because the boys are decent and wouldn't do anything. all we're going to do is watch movies & sleep like an all girl sleepover haha. i already tried telling her that but she still won't go for it.. how to i convince her to let me go!?!?!?
LM answered Tuesday July 17 2007, 2:11 pm: Will your friends parents be there? They really should be- it'll be a good selling point for your mom. Have her meet these guys before the sleepover. Try saying, "Okay, I'll go until it's time to go to bed. After dinner, you can come over and meet these guys. They're decent people and I think you'd be more comfortable letting me sleep over if you knew them first" Parents are overprotective and they're just looking out for you. So don't get too mad with her, you won't get ANYTHING. If she absolutely won't let you, stay really late. Like, one AM, then get a ride home [or drive yourself if you can] and check in with Mom. You won't miss much [just the sleeping] and oyu could come back the next day.

If there are supervisers and she knows it,
then she can feel comfortable that there
will be people there to watch you
[ even though nothing is gonna happen ]
If that fails, try and tell her how important
it is to you. You might as well guilt her
into it if you want to go that bad
hope i helped. (; [ xkissyMISSYx's advice column | Ask xkissyMISSYx A Question ]
