Just do what you think is reasonable. I have three teenagers and have to say I tend not to make things a rule, just allow or disallow it as they ask. It makes it easier, because to be honest; what is okay for one needs not be for the other. Sorry if this sounds unfair, but I know my children and they are just not all the same.
And I must say it also depends on where they are going and who with. And on the plus side; my children think I am reasonable and do not argue much on these issues. Phew!!
So what would I say no way to...... it hasn't happen yet, but I would say no way to house parties (don't know if you call them like that, but they are these mega dance parties with loads of drugs going around).
I think we are not too bad as parents, though they are not allowed to come home alone at night as we live a bit outside town, so my husband picks them up then. I have not experienced it yet, but I wouldn't be too happy if they were really drunk or something. Plus my husband tends to be unhappy if my daughter dresses too lightly and wears too much make up.
