18th Birthday Party
I'm trying to get a head start on planning my nephew's 18th birthday party. I want this party to be extra special because his home life hasn't been good, but since he's turning 18, he can finally move in with me. I'm trying to come up with a theme that will represent his new found freedom. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know if the prison release thing will be a good idea because it may seem a little rude to him and bring him bad memories. Just find a hobbie that he likes everybody has one just try to find out and do it about it. Do not focus a lot on the theme but on the people thats gonna be there and that he spents a good time. Good luck :).

How about going ahead and getting his room together? You said he's moving in with you, so what a great way to show him that your just as happy about him living with you, than he is! It'll make him feel loved and welcomed. :)
I'm 19 years old, and my parents planned my fiance' birthday when he was 18; and let me tell you from experience.
Boys don't want to do anything with family. They wanna go out with the 'boys'.
He may be different.
How about taking him out to dinner? His favorite place to eat? How about getting him tickets to his favorite sports event?
How about paintball? Boys love that!
Lazar tag could be good, but is he interested in that kind of stuff? My fiance did that, and he said he got bored after a couple of rounds.
I mean its kind of tough to give you something helpful, when we aren't sure of his personality type. Does he like to party? Is he more the shy, stay at home type? Does he drink? (not severely, but occassionally)
For my 18th birthday, I went to the club, and back to a hotel with a couple of friends and just chilled and drank. I felt like an adult for a night.
How about taking him shopping? Get him a new look, to make himself feel more like a man??
As we get older, we aren't really into 'birthday' parties. We like hanging with friends. So let him do something with his friends, and than when he comes home, surprise him with a room, and a few gifts from you.
Does he have a cell phone? How about a computer? Does he need new shoes? A hat? A razor?
Just a bunch of little stuff; and of course freedom and not blowing up his phone every ten minutes asking where he is at, will definitely make it a great birthday.
I'm sorry about his home life; he's lucky to have an aunt/uncle who are willing to let him move in with you.
Best of luck!<3

I found a few ideas you might consider.
1. Water Gun Party, buy a bunch of water guns and let your nephew and his friends attack.
2. Lazer Tag, no one is too old for lazer tag!
3. If he likes sports you can have a sports theme
4. If he likes music you can have a bunch of different music stuff going on
5. A BBQ
Hope I helped!
