In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...   3:05 - The guidelines we use and the questions we ask to determine whether or not we allow our own kids to have a sleepover with their friends.   5:11 - Why knowing the formal questions about body safety, firearm safety, etc. can keep your child safe, even if you don't choose to explicitly ask them.   10:57 - It's not about one thing, but all the things that together serve to help create a safer environment.   12:29 - What are the benefits of allowing your child to have a sleepover?   17:01 - Assessing your child's personal developmental readiness.   21:07 - At what age are most kids developmentally able to handle a sleepover?   24:44 - Addressing bullying (before and after) slumber parties.   31:23 - How one-on-one sleepovers can help children create connections and break into friend groups.   ✨We want to hear from you!
