Would you let your 10 year old daughter have a boy/girl sleepover?

Never in a million years! I wouldn't mix both male and female, you'd be asking for trouble.
Never! A a co-ed sleepover isn't necessary or appropriate ever.
This same question was posted by someone else a few weeks ago, go back in search for it. I think it had like 80+ post on it. You'll find most post were 12 yr olds saying yes, very few adults/parents respond and the ones who did strongly suggest NO. Being a mother of an already grown daughter I can tell for sure you will regret it so I say you definitely should not. My thought on it is this" anything that can done in fun should end when its time to go to sleep and send them all on home" because the nights over then and nothing else is left to do. And you should not lose sleep all night watching them and only problems can occur from it.
Never! No,no, a thousand times no! Please do not let your girl have or attend one of these.
I vote with the overwhelming "no" faction, a reallllly big NO!
Absolutely no way. Maybe a slumber party with just girls. I personally think that boys and girls are put into situations where they are together and there is no need for it at these tender ages. Let the kids be kids while they can.
NO! I wouldn't let a child of any age have a boy/girl sleepover.
I teach high school. Trust me, it is hard enough keeping things under control in a classroom sometimes. I'd hate to be the adult responsible for keeping things under control in the living room overnight.
absolutely NOT!
You are setting up a path for a lot of future bad decisions. Tell your kid NO no matter how much they pout. You are the parent & they are the kid. Most parents would disapprove of you for allowing such a thing to happen. I would not want YOU to be in charge of my child or grandchild in any way. This is very irresponsible to even consider such a thing.
You would be responsible for what goes on & if something should happen you would be liable & we're talking possible jail time here. Be the parent & say no way. Let's think of something else that would be fun or it will be family time only.
My first thought was NO, because of the curiosity, at that age, and the start of girl/boy crazy thing, but ya know, if there isn't any concerns with inappropriate behaviors, and you know them well. Why not?
But of course, girls with Mom in the room, boys with Dad in another room or level in the house. Good Luck
Did any one notice that the response looks like it was typed by a kid? Just wondering, and I agree 100% about no sleep overs!
Asking for trouble! No way!
Nope, no way and no thanks
ok i take it as a no, thanx every1
I think you should do what you feel is right. Having that type of sleepover, think about it and then write down the good and the bad and make your decision. As a mother of four boys and one daughter I wouldn't have a sleepover but would have a co-ed party and the girls could stay over after.
NO, asking for trouble. No sleep overs at any age, not even 30!!!!
NO do not open yourself to troubles.
Maybe the boys can come for small party, cake
and LEAVE and girls can stay ...
No, never. I am happy to see that everyone has said no. Boys should never be in a girls bedroom, (or visa-versa) even during the day. There just isn't any reason for it.
Also, beware, if your child wants to stay over at a friend's house and they have a opposite gender sibling around the same age. That could be asking for trouble too.
Of course not - You'd have to be crazy.
Absolutely not! They're ten years old boys and girls who are becoming very aware their of differences and very curious about the opposite sex. While I"m sure you plan to supervise their every move, do you really want to set a precedent that this is acceptable? Would you want to host a boy-girl sleepover with high-schoolers? I do not think this is a good idea. A boy-girl party would suffice.
