My daughter has 15 years and she wants to go party for new years, with some friends to another parents friend house for new years party. Somtimes i let her go out at nigth with her cousins (older then her) but my sister is always drive them to the place and picking them. I dont want to let her go (special because no cousin is going just some of her friends i also know), but she is insisting. do you think i've been to stricked, to "old minded" in not letting her go?

I would call the parents at the house where the party will be and ask some questions, like will there be drinking, how many will be there, will they be actively supervising or off in another room? Depending on their answers, I might let her go.

Sounds like a great compromise you can both be happy with! Good for you! Happy New Year to you and yours!

Let her go. At 15 she is old enough to know right from wrong and if you raised her correctly, she will make good decisions. Since this is at a parent home and it is supervised, I wouldn't worry about her going. Let he go and have a good time.

My main problem is because its out of cty and if something happens it will take me long to arrive there, i can also drive her or pick her up. Sometimes she goes to parties with her cusins and friends which i know, but its near by and theres always a family member driving them, not out of the city like this one is.

My grand daughter is aslo 15 years old.I dont think there would be a problem with her going to the party. if there is no drinking and it is supervised by a adult.kids at this age like to be with there friends.If you can not pick her up after the party, maybe she can spend the night with her friend.

It depends completely on your previous experiance of what she is like. Is she to be trusted? If she is there is no reason to stop her from going.
