Teenage parties get a lot of bad press, but they can be an important and positive aspect of your child’s social life and development. There’s no one right way to handle them, but if you’re thorough and keep the lines of communication open, you can help your teenager stay safe – and have fun too.
The basics
As a teen gets older, they will probably want to go to parties with their friends. They might even want to have a party at home. Don’t panic!
Teenage parties are fun, and they can also be a chance for a teen to:
- develop social skills, independence and confidence
- expand their friendship group
- develop their planning skills, ifthey are hosting the party
- introduce their friends to your family.
It’s normal to feel worried about letting a tenn go to parties. It might feel particularly concerned if they don’t know the host or how likely it is that alcohol or drugs might be on offer.
Teens might have mixed feelings too such as excitement, nerves, anxiety.
BE CAREFUL FOR WHAT YOU DO
Going to a party
When it comes to teenage parties, they desire to have fun.
The safety part is important too. Whether there’ll be alcohol and whether the party will stay in one place or move somewhere else during the night.
