Do you let your kids watch scary movies or movies that are rated 14+. DDs are at a sleepover and they went with the birthday girl, another child and the birthday girl's cousin (she is 22) to rent a movie. They came back with "When a stranger calls." I hated to be a killjoy but i immediately said "I don't think so." Tegan is almost 13 and Kelsey is 10 1/2. Luckily the mom said no as well. The other child said her mom let her watch it when the mom was going out for the evening and she was home alone. Maybe i am overprotective but i don't think it is necessary for kids this age to watch these types of films. The mom and i took When a stranger calls back to the video store and got another movie that was more age appropriate.
So my concern is what if i hadn't been there? I won't be good friends with all of the parents whose parties they are invited to. How do i let people know that DDs are not allowed to watch thrillers or horror movies of any type?
I know if DDs started watching these kinds of movies they wouldn't sleep properly and they would be quite upset.

Good for you for checking with each parent regarding Kayleigh's birthday party i am sure they appreciated it.
I hope she has a great party.

I agree with Nancy, when we have kids over ( and I don't already know where their parent's stand) I ask them
You bring up a great point, while I do communicate with parents on what is or isn't allowed wrt my kids, I am also working hard on making my kids more responsible when away from us.
