— a wizzmo answered —I would say this is definitely not a normal request. It is 100% fair to set boundaries, but this is worth having a conversation with him about where his worries come from.
Often, if you give him the chance to explain why he doesn’t want you to have sleepovers, you’ll find his actual motivations lie elsewhere. Hear him out — but use your best judgment as to whether he’s genuinely looking out for you or simply insecure.
