What do you think of this episode? Do you have any topics you'd like me to cover?

Parties can be life-enhancing, joyous, and a wonderful chance to meet new people, but when it's for a teenager it can have a touch of the wild west about it. 

For parents who understand the risks it can feel easier to say no, but if we think through all of the issues - and discuss them with our teens - there's far less chance things will go horribly wrong.

Our website has a free checklist of things to cover when planning your party.
