@antoninalgriffin: People said I was projecting my trauma when really I was protecting my kids. That’s why I love the Where Hands Go bundle it teaches children how to speak up, understand boundaries, and stay safe in a world that doesn’t always protect them. These are the conversations that save lives. #BlackFridayDealsForYou #ChristmasGiftIdeas #ParentingAwareness #TikTokShopCreatorPicks #BodySafetyBooks

Cindy Moss :

Can happen without sleepovers too.

TAY_0N_V3NUS :

My mother is like this, and she’s slowly ruining our relationship because It’s getting to the point of becoming alienating and lonely. Because she doesn’t even let me go to meet up spots where she can come with me. Stop using fear to isolating your children because if something happens they will not tell you because they will feel like you’ll turn it into a a “I told you so” moment, and they might just never speak to you when they grow up because of this.

I’m glad the ppl I had sleep overs with were raised right…

Banaanakin :

All that to promote ai 😭😭😭

Max🏒 :

Went to sleepovers all my life, never happened, sleepovers are such a cool part of childhood, and for all the ppl saying “oh well its just going to have to be at my house” if evry parent has that mentality then no kids will ever be able to hang out, rather than punish your kids, learn the parents of who they hang out with

Alexxx ⭐️🇳🇬 :

I couldn’t have sleepovers because I’m bisexual 🙂

mimi.notfoundx2 :

pajama party doesn’t always mean Sleep over😭? when I was younger, my parents didn’t let me sleep over, but I went until they picked me up😭

ZuriStarrLive :

As a social worker the answer should always be no

222🖤 :

Yall can call it projection but I am NOTTTT sending my child to a strangers house just because our kids are friends😭 ima need to atleast meet them a few times and have them over

🌺Samera🌺 :

So in other words projection

really_yg :

They say an over protective mother, was an under protected daughter. You are not wrong, you are cautious.

cuter than angels :

Never had a sleepover in my life unless it was at my house!!!!! Not traumatized at all. Protect your kids ya’ll

fedsouls :

I had sleep overs at good people’s houses. Everything was always okay. I understand being protective but just want to put my experience out there for parents that do let their kids go over. Nothing ever happened to me. My mom knew everyone I went over to

cutie :

whole time it can also happen not at sleepovers

les 👩🏽‍❤️‍💋‍👩🏽 :

people are acting like you are so wrong. My child will NOT be going to any sleepovers and it is that serious.

✝️ :

people are to unpredictable to just leave your kids in the care of anyone. Idc how well I know a person, my kids cannot spend the night

Untildeathcallsmyname :

Feel bad for them

melanatedvirgo84 :

I wasnt allowed to sleepovers. I hated it. And the only man I was allowed around growing up was my dad. My mom dated one guy that we know of she let him move in. It only lasted a week. She kept asking me and my sister was he touching us or made us feel uncomfortable. Me and my sister were both like mom is tripping. He never tried anything we liked him. I was 13 and she was 12. She kicked him out a week later. I always wonder if my mom was touched as a kid because she was always on it. I’m 41 now btw and I raise my kids like this as well. Oh and her ex she kicked out when I was like 27 I found out he was on THE REGISTRY!! I told my mom and she said “I knew it!” She had a feeling.

Levi_s :

nylajjeee :

sleepovers only happen at my house, period

d00bn00b :

Do parents not meet their kids friends parents anymore? Or does everyone assume everyone will hurt them? I get protecting your kids but sometimes it’s just too much fear and not enough vetting social relationships.

Melanie :

I have been a social worker for 20+ years. I have seen to much. Nope. No sleepovers. Everyone sleeps in their own beds and we learn about telling safe adults when something has happened.

⃟ :

I grew up like this wasn’t allowed to go over anybody’s house really allowed to sleep over anything like everyone else was and it affected me deeply and I have really bad social anxiety. Now I really struggle with talking to people and trying to connect with people and also making new friends.😣
