Re: Raising Girls & Curfews
My parents did not set a specific strict curfew, nor did they differentiate between me and my brothers. My mom does not like the idea of any of us staying out late, but we do sometimes. None of us are crazy partiers. I'm pretty good about at least letting them know where I am and who I'm with. The boys are more careless. But still not getting into trouble.
I was not allowed to sleep over at school friends' houses. It was different with cousins. And other Muslim family friends who my parents knew very well. It was a big deal when I finished the Quran and Ammi Abbu let me invite my school friends for a sleep over at age 10. And that was at my own house! But I understand it, and I will probably be similarly strict.
