Heera: I’m curious about 2 things.

1. What would be your reaction IF she wanted to go to a sleepver at another Muslim’s house? Not sure if your daughter has any Muslim friends but for the sake of the discussion, would you be ok with her going if the friend inviting her was Muslim also?

2. Are you willing to host a sleepover at YOUR house if you daughter wanted to invite her friends there?

As for me: I never got invited to a sleepver so didn’t have to deal with it. I had 2 other Muslim friends who dealt with this though. 1 of them…her parents would allow it if they knew the friend’s parents really well. The 2nd friend, her parents never allowed her to go BUT they allowed her to host sleepover at their house.

I don’t have kids right now but if/when I do, I’d be ok with them having sleepovers at our house. And if they’re 13 and older, I would be ok with them going ONLY if we (hubby and I) are also really good friends with their friend’s parents too.

I have agreed to my daughter having a s/o at my house and I have also agreed to her having a s/o at her Muslim mate as I know her mum.
