This is very interesting. This past weekend while camping with my in laws, I asked them why they did not allow their daughters boyfriend to sleep in the same room as their daughter. (she was 16, he had to sleep on the couch if he had sleep overs) ANd yet they allowed my husband who was 18 at the time to have his girlfriend sleep in the same room. My in laws are very religious people.
My FIL began to laugh and say, "well it was funny, you knew as soon as that girl stepped in the house she was ready to go"
My MIL said she was always p'd off about it. That he allowed their son to have his girlfriend sleep in the same bed. She never wanted either of her children to have BF/GF sleepovers. Their daughter was never allowed, but it was fluffed off for their son.
Then my husband says "the first guy with peircings and tattoo's that shows up at my door for our daughter, will be one sorry punk. She wont be dating until she is 16."
Then I asked about the boys and he says "well thats different"
IMO having 2 boys and 1 girl. I will be more over protective of my daughter. I know I will let the boys get away with more. It's crazy to think they will not have sex until they are 20. It's going to happen. I just hope that I do a good job as a parent, and they are not too young and irresponsible.
