How about letting her set the guest list, and all you get to do is veto names? If she doesn't feel comfortable enough to invite boys, let it go. It probably means those boys wouldn't feel comfortable enough to come.

I say you ask your daughter and see what SHE would like,
after all it IS her Birthday, right? Trying to sheild her from Boys and only inviting girls is not fair to everyone involved. How would you feel if you invited only girls and your daughter grew up to be a lesbian....and years later you found out is was because you made her have an all girls Party? I know that is a far stretch, but the truth of the matter is, you should ask what will make your daughter happy, and not try to decide everything for her. I think your reading too much into this, keep it simple and let everyone have a good time. I think you know you wont be able to protect her all of her life. Fourteen is the perfect age for letting her decide what she prefers. Hope the Party is the best ever!

Well, give her a limit on how many people she can invite, if she pushes the limit by a few people, let it slide. She will probably invite her best friends and a few boys if she wants too. Ask her about how many people she's thinking about inviting/what kind of party she wants to throw. Make your decision based on these things. If she has lots of good friends who are girls, then she may not invite any boys at all... don't think to much about it. If she invites boys, that shouldn't be a problem. As long as they are polite and nice, nothing is wrong with having boys at a party. It is ultimately, up to you. If you decide no boys, she will just have to live with that. Or you could limit her to inviting boys who are JUST friends.

One thing to note would be it is pointless to invite 14 year old boys who get nervous in the presence of girls and isolate themselves during the party. You gotta make sure those boys are outgoing and sociable. If not, make an all girls party which can be more fun and they can talk about anything they want without any boys listening :p

14 years old.
Both boys and girls. My kids are 11 and 10 and have male and female at parties. At 13 I did. Seems ok to me. Just have someone watch over the party.

No, I wouldn't let boys come to my daughters 14th birthday party. I would only allow girls. And though she should have a say in her party, you're her parent and should be the ultimate decider. Because you know what's truly best for her, not her.

im 14 && this is my oppinion :
-if its a dance party then YES invite boyz, other wise there would be no one for the girls to dance with, they dont want to dance with each other lol
-parties at our age are boringggg if theres no boyz !
-shes growing up so you have to accept that and invite boyss !
the girls && guyz might dance rly "naughty" together lol but thats how we dance! so you just need to get over it if your an unkewl mom, k ?
i hope you take my advice and invite the boys!
GOOD LUCK =]

Invite whoever she wants to come. That would make her happy. Im 14 too. I personally think that you should ask her who she wants to come. Boys can go to a dance party if they want, if they dont want to they could not come. But you know, as long as there are present, she'll be happy.

She should do the inviting, not you. That way the people she wants to be there will be there, whether it`s boys and girls or just girls. If you`re asking whether or not you should allow her to invite boys too, yes. She`s fourteen.

I think you should let her have girls and boys, but tell her there are going to be rules about the boys. You would like her to be comfortable with you and open. It is good that it is her decision. :)♥
