My 13 year old daughter Vivian has always been a horrible sleeper. From a very young age she has never wanted to sleep in her own bed, she would come into my husband and I’s room and make some excuse as to why she wanted to sleep with us. Perhaps it was our fault we formed this habit by giving in to her, but anyways. For this reason we avoided letting her have sleepovers at other people’s houses for a long time. However this girl in her class was having a birthday party which involved a sleepover. I knew it wasn’t a good idea, but Vivian insisted on going. I figured she’s a teenager now, she’s capable of taking care of herself. Fine. I told her that she could go, but that she better not pull any of the BS she normally does. She made her choice and would have to stay the whole night with no complaints. So the sleepover comes, we go to bed without hearing anything. I figured it’s going great and was relieved. At 2 AM I woke up to my phone ringing. I look at it and it’s Vivian. She said she ate too much at the sleepover and was feeling sick and wanted me to come pick her up. She said it wasn’t her usual nonsense, that she was actually sick but I didn’t believe her. It’s like the boy who cried wolf. I told her to go back to sleep and just tough it out for a few more hours, that I would pick her up in the morning. So what does she do? Goes into the friend’s parents room and wakes them up. Tells them that she’s sick and her mom is refusing to pick her up, so could they drop her home. Completely embarrassed me as a parent🤦🏼‍♀️. Now she’s mad at me for not picking her up and her friend’s parents think I’m some weirdo who doesn’t care about her daughter since they don’t know what Vivian does. AITA?
