Thinking teen sleepover a bad idea?

[Tereo]

I'm going away with 4 friends and their kids for a night this month. We ve each rented a hut at an activity campsite. Our kids are all teenagers and they just meet once or twice a year. Last year they ended up organising an impromptu sleepover in one of the huts. I didn't think it was a great idea at the time as there was a mix boys and girls.
AIBU to suggest to the friends in advance to let the kids all stay up as late as they like but sleep in their own family hut?

Wise post show. A lovely likeminded friend was horrified about what i allowed my teen to do but her own Dd though lovely is a risk taking sexually actively super sociable dare devil type and mine is an over cautious sensible sort as are her mates. So we came at it from entirely different places!

So when I tell you that my 15yr old DD has sleepovers with between 4 and 8 boys and she's the only girl, I'm neither cool nor naive. I know her. I know her friends. I have a lot of history with them, their parents and they are firm best friends of several years. Do I trust them implicitly? No clue. I don't trust anybody implicitly as life doesn't work like that so I mitigate for eventualities. I know as far as possible that they are safe and will make good choices. Is this the same for all children her age? God no. I teach at their school. I know precisely what other DC are doing at mixed sleepovers and I know the fallout from it. DD would not be sharing sleep space with other teenagers outside of her very close knit group.

This is spot on for us too. Though I can add we saw friends teens deal sensibly with the same sort of scenarios too, so our experience wasn't that teens were rampant when let loose at a sleepover, though I know DD distanced herself from one friend whose more promiscuous behaviour, she didn't approve of, it was the exception, rather than the rule
