I am 15 and my boyfriend is 17. Do you think my parents would let him sleep round for one night? Obvisouly we would sleep in different rooms. And take note we've only been together for one month. Or has anyone got any ideas on how to convince my parents to let him? Any advice will be great! Thanks!

Well, he's two years older which is already something my parents wouldn't approve of but I'm guessing your parents do approve, if they don't, then I wouldn't ask to let him sleep over.
Even if you explained that you two would be in different rooms, I think it still might be a shaky idea. My parents won't let my boyfriend sleep over and we've been together for around 6 months.
If you really want him to sleep over, allow your parents to come check on you two in your separate rooms so they can see how you behave. Pretty much allow them to chaperone you two for the first few sleep overs if you have any. This will build trust and finally they will allow you to have more freedom once trust is gained.
All depends on your parents and what way they look at it. I can't see it being a big deal if you two are sleeping in different rooms. Some parents are strict some ain't. I had a girlfriend that was 15 once when I was 18. Her mother didn't care about us sleeping in the same room at all. Try your luck.
Honestly, my girlfriend's parents would NEVER let me sleep over, even if there was a tornado outside and I happened to show up at her doorstep, and we've been together for 2 years!
Now the fact that the GUY is 17 years old and is two years older than you makes it all a bit sketchy. You guys also have only been together for a month, which really isn't a lot at all.
You should not try to have him sleep over, no parent would allow that. Given the circumstances, it's even worse than just a simple "can my boyfriend sleep over?", to them it will sound like "can my 17 year old boyfriend sleep over, we've only dated for a month?"
I'm my girlfriend's age and lord knows what would happen if I slept over there, even with permission! Her parents would eye us like hawks and be completely weirded out as to why I slept over, I get it if your boyfriend knocks on your door randomly after escaping a storm asking for a place to stay but just as a sleepover for fun, no no no, no parent would allow that, because bringing your 17 year old boyfriend over to have a fun little "sleepover" means other things...
