If you are uncomfortable then you shouldn't do it. I for one do let my kids go on sleepovers, but we have to know the family well. Until you are comfortable, or even if you are never comfy w/ the idea, encourage a lot of playdates so that you can get to know the child and family. I've made some wonderful friends through my kids. We happen to be the house of most interst though, we've always had an open door to sleepoevers and have rarely said no to our kids, it's a great way to get to know their friends.
