Why do people invite their friends to their house?

Ever since I was younger than 10 years old , kids had the idea of inviting there friends to there house.





What is the main reason someone would want their friend in their house and where did this idea originally come from?





Thanks.

Well, I guess you could visit standing out on the sidewalk if you wanted to. Just seems like it would be more comfortable to go inside the house....and share your life with your friends.





Up to you.
Reply:The home is a very sacred place, it contains all your personal belongings, and it is where you live. By inviting people over to your house, it shows that you are welcoming them into your life.
