Question Posted Saturday November 24 2012, 9:47 pm
So I have this guy friend and he has asked me if I could sleep over his house, we are best friends but my mom always says " Absolutely not!". Why is she not letting me. I really want to sleep over his house but my mom is like WAY OVER PROTECTIVE. Any way I can convince her to let me stay the night. ANYTHING WILL DO! Please like HELP ME!
lightoftruth answered Sunday November 25 2012, 11:47 am: Honestly, I don't think she's being overprotective. I think she's just being protective. I wouldn't be allowed to stay over at a guys house when I was living in my parents home and a guy wouldn't be able to stay over at my house.
I don't know how old you are but if you are living in your parents home, there isn't really anything you can do to change her mind. Even if you tell her you guys are just best friends and nothing like sex will happen, I doubt she will change her mind.
I wasn't even allowed to have the door closed if a guy was in my bedroom.
Everything she is doing is to protect you. Whether everything is innocent or not, she doesn't trust this world we live in. [ lightoftruth's advice column | Ask lightoftruth A Question ]

Even if your guy friends parents are home they will eventually go to bed themselves. As the saying goes when the mouse is a sleep the mice will play. This is the time that has mom concerned.
Short of allowing mom to have you wear a chastity belt I doubt their is much you can do to change her mind. As long as you are under age and living under her roof there is little you can do to change her mind. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

They can trust their kid(s) and even their kid's friends but they can never trust the type of world we are living in right now- a world where teen pregnancy is very rampant. Wouldn't you do the same if you were a mother? [ moonsky's advice column | Ask moonsky A Question ]

Most parents would be uneasy for this reason. All you can do is tell her sex is the last thing that would happen. You could also have her speak to his parents an ensure adult supervision or ask your mom if he can stay at your place and her supervise. Why do you want him over so badly?
