Bouncer for teenagers party

Silverbling

Hi

I did not know what forum to put this on so I thought I would put it here because I know its a bonkers idea.

My daughter is making her communion and I have a couple of marquees in the garage. I asked my son to get some mates to help me put them up to see if any bits are missing.

It is his 15th birthday next month so he had the brainwave of leaving them up and having a party.

I said 30 people, he says 70, I say no drink, he says yes to no drink but I can't stop them drinking before they arrive.

I said invite only and no facebook, he agreed but his phone is hopping.

Do you know where I can get a bouncer in South Dublin? I do not need a fully qualified expensive one just someone who can be there as a preventative

My name is URL

It is his 15th birthday next month

I said 30 people, he says 70, I say no drink, he says yes

Sounds like he needs a kick up the hole!

Your fourteen year old is insisting on drink?Nice.

hfallada

Your a parent! Just make it clear to him that its 30 people and no alcohol. Otherwise no party. Im young and I think driving at a 15 th is ridiculous

A couple of marquees for a communion?!

It's the drinking I would be more concerned with :P

You let your 14 yr old dictate terms to you? he needs a thick ear

You'd be better off investing that bouncer money in Supernanny, no wonder there are so many little fvckers going around.

Feck the idea of a bouncer... just get a few of the parents to hang around. There will be no craic then!

My son will not smoke weed but yes that is why I want a bouncer, no drink or drugs allowed

Frosty McSnowballs

Will the Brazilians and Germans be getting their heads kicked in before or after the rice crispie treats?

You could just stand up to the snot nosed little bollox and be a parent. Just a suggestion.

Sounds like you need a bouncer to protect yourself from the little delight.

There was a company called Huntly-McCann that specialised in Supervision of Childrens events

I dont have their number

I can just see all the doormen of Leinster chomping at the bit to get their hands on this contract.

No he is agreeing to telling his friends no drink or they will not be allowed in

Do you have their daughter?

Sorry but getting a bouncer for a 15 year olds birthday is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. If you as the parent can't keep a lid on it yourself then the party shouldn't be happening.

If 70 people or even more than 30 show up its probably going to end in tears. If things go badly wrong you could be held responsible. Think about the risks you're taking here.

Google event security companies, G4S might, can't name many Dublin ones off the top of my head. Maybe €18 / hour + 23% VAT. They'll normally insist on a minimum of two personnel or 1 per 50 or similar. Alternatively ask a bouncer on the door of a pub if they know anyone looking for a little extra cash, I've done it when in a pinch.

I'll do it for €7 an hour. I have a samurai sword. It's a bit blunt, but they won't know that. I can kick a melon over a wall.

I was referring to the fact that your 14 year old has basically told you to go **** yourself when you tried to set some ground rules.

Very talented.

Local Gárda station would be your best bet to keep young drunks clear. No problems after that.

I am thinking about it, but they hang around in massive groups anyway, it will be invite only for his friends that I know.

I am 5 foot and tiny, I certainly could not handle something if they kicked off because they were not allowed in.

It is the teenagers I do not know I am worried about

Then it sounds to me like no party is the best option if you think you can't keep it under control.

Can the kid not just have a few of his closer friends over for a few hours, play video games and eat crap food. That's what we did when I was 16.

Silverbling

Cheers everyone, I suspected it was a mental idea so will re-think it.

And for the record my son has been seriously ill for 2 years and recently had a lung biopsy with the all clear, even being so ill he got 2 A's, 2 C's and the rest B's in his mocks. He is not a spoilt little **** who lays down the rules but a loving, brave well behaved kid.

He deserves a party to make up for the ones he missed and the fact he is now pink not grey.
