Okay, so there's this party coming up in like a month. It's one of the "biggest" parties of the year, if you will. Which means, EVERYONE will be there, and I mean everyone. I know my mother will not let me go to one of these unsupervised, drinking parties. How do I get away with going to one, or better yet, convince her to let me go?
if you want to convince your mom to let you go, tell her that your responsible and old enough to take care of yourself and if anything happens just give her a call and have her pick you up.. or tell her that things happen and you have to learn from your mistakes, like going to that party ..if that made sence? haha okay well if you need more advice just let me know!

That you can't be pressured into drinking or doing anything wrong. Also, that if they party gets out of hand you'll leave immediately. And hopefully you really won't drink at the party. Arent you a bit worried though that the party might be crashed by the cops? That's probably why your mum doesnt want you to go. Anyways, try sitting her down like I said and Good Luck.
