When you were in high school, did your parents let you stay out all night long (meaning at least until the sun came up)?

This question was inspired by the recent prom question.

When I was in high school, I had a best friend who was allowed to stay out all night long. I was not. I think most kids were not, but I could be wrong. This was in the 1980’s.

I know some kids say they’re staying at their friends houses, and the friends say the same, and if they’re all lucky the parents don’t check and they can then stay out all night. I never tried it, because my stepfather was strict to where that was never going to happen.
