    My kid went round to her friends house “just for the day” recently.

    She phoned and said, “oh btw [friend] wants me to stay the night is that ok?”

    Me: “you’ll need to come back and get things for the night”.

    Her: “it’s ok I already have my pyjamas toothbrush and laptop with me”

    Me: 🤨

        She new she was spending the night before she left. She just thought she’d have better luck convincing me after she was already there and it was getting towards Saturday evening. “Oh no I lost track of time I know you don’t want me taking the bus late [friend]'s parents are ok with me staying here”. It was obvious but well orchestrated so I let her get away with it. After all,I don’t want to give her reason to be more sneaky than she already is.
