Ah parties, they’re often a highlight of “the teen experience” – but we're not sure parents necessarily feel the same!

Fun though they can be, parties will often be the stage where our teens will have their first encounters with alcohol, drugs and all those other things that make parents think twice about letting their child go in the first place.

So, in this episode, Mads & Angela are here with the ultimate guide on getting your teen through the party years, complete with tips on:

-       Setting clear boundaries around drinking

-       Making sure our teens feel comfortable in turning to us when/if things go wrong

-       Planning pick-ups and a party “escape plan”

-       Ensuring your teen balances their drinking with food

& a whole lot more!
