Khloé Kardashian is "very strict" when it comes to her children. The mother of two revealed that she doesn't let her kids sleep over at other people's houses.
"I don't let my kids sleep anywhere but their own house. I'm very strict about it. Times are different, so I wouldn't let my daughter or my son sleep at other people's houses, I'm just one of those parents," she said.
"I just - I think a lot. I've watched a lot of 'Dateline,'" she added with a touch of humor, referring to the episode of the series where the girl who goes to sleep over at her friend's house ends up brutally murdered.
There are many reasons why it's a better idea for your children to sleep alone in their own home. The above case is the most extreme, but here are some other reasons:
- You can never know people well enough to trust their children.
You may get along very well with your neighbors, but at the end of the day you don't have to show your dark side to each other, right? In this way, all the neighbors or the parents of your children's friends may seem very nice, but the parent should never be so naive. When it comes to the safety of your children, four eyes, regardless of whether your child is upset or not.
- Nothing good happens after midnight.
Children keep secrets and get into mischief, no matter how careful parents are about supervising their children's sleepovers. Keeping children together for a long night to sleep in the same room together can lead to some behaviors or activities that you may not want your child to be exposed to.
- The sleeping person becomes a very vulnerable space
Although good parents do everything they can to make sure their children have good friends who come from safe homes, there are many things that cannot be guaranteed. You have very little control over who else might be in the house where your child's friend lives.
Siblings of the opposite sex, other relatives, or even unexpected friends can create unsafe environments for children. And while they are sleeping or not surrounded by people they know, children may be less likely to seek or receive help if a bad situation arises.
