[blparent] Having Sleepovers With Sighted Friends

[Nancy Irwin]

I got the opportunity to go and I’m glad I did.  My folks met their folks and it started by going over to their house to play after school first.

When I asked my mom if I could go, she said no. I was upset about it for a long time, and just sat on the couch and cried. At the time I was sad about not being able to attend the sleepover. Looking back now, I can say that my parents did the right thing by not letting me go. They did not know my sighted friend or her parents, so I can't blame them for not allowing me to attend. I would love to hear your thoughts on this topic.
