I see from one of your other answers you're 26. So you had her when you were 12. I don't think so, somehow.

I would ask your mother to help solve this problem, not ask for the sleepover. If you suggest that you think its might be too inconvenient for her to have the sleepover there but you don't know any of your daughters friends parents very well and your daughter is so set on a sleepover.
She will know you are putting her in a bind but it will be harder for her to say no. And she might surprise you

I wouldn't ask one of her friends moms to have it there. Maybe tell your mom that the kids will stay in the living room or your daughters room the whole time. Although that would probably be hard with 12 year olds. Why is your mom against it?

Come out and ask your mom. If you are paying rent, you have the "right" to have a small party at her house. If not, well, hopefully she will allow it for your daughter.
As far as the friends house goes, that depends on your relationship with the parents. If you are also friends, and your mother says no then I would ask.

No it's not rude to ask a friend, especially if the mom's kid is one of your daughter's guests. I don't see why your mother would object but I would limit the number of kids sleeping over to like 3 or 4. Good luck and congrats.

ok 1 way to convince her is to tell her you have it all under control and you will buy everything for the party and she dosent have to pay for anything tell her you willl have them do diffrent activities like a dance contest but dont have the music up to lound tell her that you will make sure no 1 gets in trouble and its a 1 day sleep over hopfully it goes well and dont forget to make them clean up after themself and the house spotless

That is a bit rude.. think about it how would you feel if someone asked you "Exuse me can you hold my daughters birthday party at your house?" You can ask her but..

well if you do so.. do it tastefully
1. find a woman that you are comfortable talking to and asking favors
2. tell the woman your situation.
3. ask about the sleepover
4 if she is kind enough to say yes.. tell her that you will provide the food, games, etc..
i hope it all goes well & wish your daughter a happy 12th birthday from meâ¥

just ask her. the worst she could say is no. if you ask a friends' mom, you can explain the situation to them and they may accommodate you. does the child have any aunts that would be willing to host the party? any of your friends? it might be less off-putting if you asked a family member instead. good luck!

You can ask your my politely. Of course that would be very rude! You could have a lock in at places like Lazer Quest, too.
