Answer 1

you are second- guessing so don't do it..if i dont like the way a house is ran my babies dont go

Answer 2

If you are not comftorable with letting your 7 year old son sleep over, let him stay 'till a late time at night (10:30pm for example)

I remember going to my first sleepover at age 7..and me and Marina went back to my house at 11:30PM it was nuts!

Sorry...I drifted off there. LOL so yeah!

Answer 3

This is just my opinion based on having a 12 year old son.  I would not let him sleep over  until you have spent some more time around this woman and her son.  The only time my son has slept at someone's house was for a birthday sleepover when he was 8 and that was for someone he had known since kindergarten.  Otherwise, I would have to know the people real well before I let him stay over.   Just too risky. Hope this helps.

Answer 4

I think since you are asking this question you are not comfortable with him staying with her.  Make a play date where you can spend time with her while your son plays. That way you can get to know her better and see how she is with her son and your son.

Answer 5

If you are not 100 % comfortable with this person then no you should not. I would suggest a playdate where you pick him up before bedtime or let him sleep over at your house.

Answer 6

You should allow him to stay over. I mean he is just a kid. I don't think that a kid his age will be a serious problem. If he was in his teens then I would reconsider, but seven years old is fine.

Answer 7

its ok let him go, usually nothing can go wrong, but pick him up early in the morning, or let him stay till like 11 at night then pick him up.

Answer 8

This is something that only you can decide. If she seems trustworthy, and you feel comfortable leaving him with her, go for it. If not, maybe you could have her son sleep over first... That way you can kinda see how he acts. Usually you can learn a lot about parents just by watching how their children behave.

You are his mother, and this is only something you can decide. If you trust her, let him go have some fun! If not, come up with an alternative.
