You are way too young to be having boys and girls over for a sleepover. If I was your parents I would be doing the same thing. They are looking over your best interests. If something should happen your parents would be held responsible. Boys that age are only thinking one thing and we don't even want to go there. Just trust your parents!!

I know some other answerers are telling you you're too young to have coed sleepovers, but I say you're too OLD. After about 9 or 10 years old, it's a little too old. You begin crossing the line between friends and potential sexual partners. It's just not good practice. It's the same reason why my 11 year old girl and 15 year old boy cannot have friends stay the night at the same time. We parents will be held liable for anything that happens in our home. It's for our protection, and while you may not agree, yours as well. You'll understand it when you're the mom of a teen.

First of all they are your parents and they are not required to give you a reason why or why not. You may not like it, and you may have had boy/girl sleep overs be for, but you have reached an age where boy/girl sleep overs are inappropriate. Plus with both of the guys having girlfriends, your parents understand that the boys, if not you also, have progressed to the stage of "lets try and see" and your parents are not going to give you the opportunity to do it in their home. And another thing, your parents are smart enough to know that having boys sleep over will do nothing but cause you trouble in your peer group. You think these boys girlfriends are gonna say, "no problem I don't care if you sleep over at another girls house." No way! There will be fall out and bad feelings over it, plus you would likely be called bad names by their girlfriends which would cause more problems down the road.
Best to listen to your parents on this, and give up the idea. If you want have a party - invite your guy friends and their girlfriends.

Did you ask your mom and dad why they don't want to have anyone over the house?
Maybe there's a good reason , that they can't talk to you about just yet ...
Just ask your parents if you can have a movie night , invite your friends over watch a movie, make some popcorn, talk maybe play a game , you still get to have fun with them but they all have to go home at the end of the night ..
Best of luck to you !!

I am a mom whose daughter had co-ed sleepovers a lot, not at 13 though, i am sorry but i agree with the rents. i know you are only friends but it takes us parents time to catch up with the new way of things and relationships between boys and girls are way different than they were when we were young, and by the way, much much healthier than in our day. give em time, don't push it too much, but come up with a reasonable reason why they should let you, if you rant and rave or sulk, you won't be able to get anywhere...good luck.

U have to understand your parents. I wouldn't let my children have boys at my house either. Because suppose one of your friends end up sneaking to another room in your house and they having sex and your parents catch them and u get in trouble for their behavior what is gonna happen to yall relationship then? So there for listen. But if ya don't wanna take my advice then don't. I'm only 14 and I still wouldn't ask my parents that crazy question.

Well it's just parents being parents. I had that same problem i had more guy friends then girl friends through out school, some parents are fine with it and some are not like your parents. All you can do is try to get them to understand that you have these guy friends because girls are so mean and they are hard to get along with. And would they rather you have no friends in school? good luck =}

Due to the fact that they are boys and old enough to have girlfriends, I myself would not let you either. Parents are just trying to prevent anything happening to you. They don't want for you to think that you can do anything you feel is alright. Cause it's not, don't grow up too fast!

First of all you are way to old to be having boys over for a sleepover. Your parents are not stupid.

Honestly, I wouldn't let my daughter have boys sleep over either. I think that your parents are just worried that something may happen. It's just not really acceptable for boys and girls of your age to have a sleep over.
