What really happens when parents allow teens to drink at home? In this powerful episode of Step Up to Save Our Children, we sit down with Fran Gerbig, Executive Director of Prevention Action Alliance, to unpack the truth behind the Parents Who Host Lose the Most campaign and what every parent needs to understand about teen parties, alcohol, and liability. Many well-meaning parents believe that allowing drinking at home is the “safer” option—but the reality is far more serious. From legal consequences to life-altering risks, this conversation breaks down what’s actually at stake and how parents can take clear, confident steps to protect their children.
You’ll learn:
• The real risks of hosting teen parties with alcohol
• What parents can be held legally responsible for
• Why “supervised drinking” is a dangerous myth
• How to set firm boundaries without losing connection with your teen
• Practical strategies to prevent underage drinking
This isn’t about fear—it’s about awareness, leadership, and prevention.
