Will you approve a sleepover for a 12 year old girl at her friend's house?

My 12 year old daughter wants to sleep over at her friend's house. I said no, because I don't know her friend's parents and I don't know the background of the child's family. And now, she is mad at me because I wont let her have a sleepover tomorrow. I said to her she could stay there from 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm, but no sleepover. She is still not happy with it. My husband is not helping at all as he just keep on saying "yes" to sleepover, contradicting me once again. I am upset and not happy. I am just avoiding the topic now and put myself on a timeout. 😭

If you have enough time find out about her parents. Ask other parents. Find out what other friends whose parents you trust are going and ask them. Call the girls parents and just talk to them.

It would be cool to let your daughter go. They are fun and good social time. I would be so sad if I couldn't and wanted to. :(
