Would you let your 17 year old daughter...?

No.

She can wait until she's 18. It's not just the possibility of sex. There's things like being too familiar with the other gender, inappropriate situations, etc. There's simply no reason I can think of where she would need to spend the night in something like that. And that goes for my son as well.

To be frank, I have known people who have been raped at mixed gender parties around that age, as well as drinking, tried drugs, etc. I have also known someone who was accused of rape during a party, and he served jail time because while there was no 'sperm' in her, there was enough evidence that he was convicted of a lesser charge. Teens can be VERY vindictive, and setting your child up in a situation that could potentially hurt them like that seems foolish. At 18 they can make that choice, but until then it's up to me and I'll say no every time.

And yeah, they can have sex any time of the day... but that doesn't mean you should give them more opportunities for things to happen.

I love Senec's reasoning: Night is not the only time of day to have sex.

If you're worried about your daughter having sex, if she wants to then she is going to have it whether or not you allow her to go to these sleepovers. There is no stopping a smart 17 year old girl (trust me.)

If you trust her, she does well in school and she hasn't given you a reason not to trust her etc. then I don't understand why you wouldn't let her.

My mom would never let me have a sleepover with boys even though she knows I have sex with my boyfriend. I'm not sure why.

Keep in mind this is coming from a 17 year old girl.

It depends on a few factors:

-Do you trust your daughter?

-Will there be adult supervision?

-Is she romantically involved with someone who will be attending?

My friends and I started boy-girl sleepovers around her age. Wherever we stayed over, the parents were home. If you are considering allowing your daughter to attend think about calling the parents who are hosting.

If you were 17 would you like to go to that sleepover??

Night is not the only part of the day to have sex

Depends on how mature she is. If she hasn't done anything in the past then why not? Also depends on who the hosts are. If I knew her friends and if they were good influences than sure.

Depends on the situation. If parents were present, (by this I mean, in the house, not in the room) yes. Otherwise, no.

yes but I would install a camera on her sleeping bag and if anything starts happening MC Hammer's U Cant Touch This would start playing

Not unless it was in the county jail and the warden promised the boys and girls would be separated.

sure if youre ok with raising your 17 yr old's baby.

No. Pregnancy and/or STDs. She is a teenager and teenagers have hormones.
