[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 538462, member: 47"] Eldest had a steady boyfriend - senior year he was allowed to sleep over. I never had a problem with that sort of thing when they were older as long as they were quiet and didn't wake up everyone in the house. There was one instance with Danny where he had friends over, and was busy somewhere else-the friends were being really noisey and I got up to tell them to knock it off assuming Danny was with them - he wasn't and I had a melt down about how I wasn't running a frat house and he never did it again. Comming of age in the late 60's and from a family that believe you only had sex to procreate, and you wern't supposed to enjoy it, never mind being a difficult child, I balked at the double standard. My brother who was 4 years younger was allowed to do as he pleased, and with me, already graduated from hi school and working, had to be home by 9:00 weekend or not (because there was nothing to do cept "get in trouble" ) wasn't buying into that whole idea. Now that the boys are older, if they do have FWB's, they are quiet about it and there is never anyone here by the time I get up. Marcie [/QUOTE]
