Dd is 15 and has a boyfriend who is 17.

Due to a bit if drama this evening it's too late for him to go home.

I've said he can stay the night - he will be in my room and she will sleep in with me.

Is that awful?

Family member has said IABU which has made me doubt myself.

Don't be daft of course it's not unreasonable.

When I read your title I assumed they'd be sharing a room.

But if she's staying in your room then no YANBU

Why does family member think YABU? Should you be sending boyfriend home/not letting him sleep in your bed? What is the problem?

Thanks Worra.

No, no room sharing at her age. I'm still up and they're in her room watching a film. Can hear them chatting away.

She's my only child so not done the teenage thing before.

He's a nice boy, I just feel like I'm being judged by family.

Just the fact he's her boyfriend and she's 15.

I'd rather he stay here where I know he's safe. I know he's 17 but I feel responsible for him.

YANBU, in the circumstances. I'd say different if you meant they'd share a room etc, but that's obviously not the situation.

Totally agree with how you have dealt with the situation, I would have done the same.
