How was your teen when they 1st went to a house party and what state did they come home in?

Just that really. If your teen was invited to a house party, how old were they when you agreed they could go? If there was alcohol did they come home in a state or were they 'sensible' about it.

15, going to a 16th birthday. There was alcohol. He discovered a "talent" for being able to drink like a fish and still appear sober. He didn't realise he only appeared sober to his wasted friends. Sober people tend not to zigzag up the garden path, giggling to themselves.
Next morning we all discovered, though, that he does not suffer from hangovers.
He also discovered that his mother is not OK about underage drinking.

16 when she went to her first. There was alcohol involved. I have no idea what actually happened, picked her up in the morning and she was a bit rough but nothing a good cooked breakfast and vat of tea couldn't fix. She said she had a lovely time, that'll do me, I don't need to know the dirty details.

She's always been relatively sensible, far more than I was at her age, so I trust her to not go too off the rails.

Hmmmm 16/17? DD doesn't drink so she always came home sober. DS came home having had a few beers and I discovered he's lovely happy and chatty having had a few -but he wasn't drunk really. Perfectly capable of walking normally etc. Just mildly intoxicated. Which is all he's done this year tbh (not quite 18 yet). Never been really drunk as far as I'm aware .

When I picked DD up from her first, she and her mate had been up since 8 tidying the house and the kitchen! Parents had been in all the time so it can't have been that bad, I think they just woke up early (both sober) and decided to get on with it!

Oh bless their hearts, how good of them! If only all teenagers were so conscientious 😂

First couple of times ds went with his 4 cans of dark fruits and was sensible, gave one to a friend who didnt have any.

3rd time, he got cocky and really overdid it, trying other peoples drinks/spirits, thankfully his dad was in charge of picking him up that night as he unexpectedly rolled the window down and 🤮 all down the side of the car 🤦🏻‍♀️

Came home crying and feeling sorry for himself. As far as I am aware enjoys a good socialable drink now but doesn't overdo it (19 now).

Mine was 16 when she first went to a house party. Rules for her (and I think they were the same for her friends) were that she could take one can of cider, we were okay with her drinking that but it had to be that can and she had to keep an eye on it. She was totally happy with that, very aware of the risks of alcohol / drugs / spiking etc. Sounded like a couple of kids got too drunk (throwing up in the bathroom and missing the toilet etc) and she didn’t like the look of that.

DS was 16. Yes there was alcohol but he wasn't interested. In fact, he texted to say he was leaving and world be home in time to watch match if the day. He's never really been a party animal 😅
Dd was also 16 when she went to her first house party. Again not interested in alcohol. They're in their 20s now, and both like a drink, but I've never seen them drunk or incapable. Which is a result, because I'm not very good with vomit...

DD is 16 and spent NYE at a friend's. All boys apart from her and they were allowed to take alcohol. DD had a can of cider, played chess with a friend, read her book and got up early to make a cooked breakfast for her friends/their parents. Two other friends had a cider each. Otherwise, soft drinks and herbal tea.

14 - she felt weird and uncomfortable so didn’t want to drink - she left early and joined us for dinner.
