Is it possible to have a party without your parents finding out? And is it a good idea? No way !! My parents wouldn't be happy when they found out , Because It's not possible to keep that secret for the rest of my life .
Hello sir.
Please tell me that forms(like used to/be or get used to),gerund,to-infinitives,phrases and conditional sentences are considered as part of english grammar or not?
Hello Jassu! Yes. All of those patterns and structures are considered to be part of English grammar. Best wishes, Joanna (LearnEnglish Teens team)
I have never done a party secretly
Parties are annoying according to me. Loud music, shouting, fighting and making the place messy... well, they're not very enjoyable in my opinion. I've been to one with my parents, and all three of us woke up with a headache the next day. Geez, the music was so loud, and I had an ear ache all night long. I guess my parents had the same issue. I'd rather spend a weekend curled up in a good book, with a hot chocolate in hand. And maybe invite my friends over. But no parties, ever! ;)))
I think parties are good. You just have to find out which kind of parties you prefer. For example, I like to chill out with my friends and have a good time Saturday evenings... Good music, enjoyable conversations and of course very nice people.
Maybe. But I'm not still quite used to parties.
No! it's not a good idea because you have to ask your parents. and if not you will get problem!
No, this isn`t good idea but parties good thing.
No, I dont think thats a good idea. My parents allow me almost everything, so if i organize a party without their allowance, I will have problems with them and I would lose Trust. They have faith in me and I would not like to break this. I love to have party with my friends to hang out with them and put on some music, but only once when my parents give me their permission. Then only that way I can have good party and would not be afraide, that my may find out some day.
No , and it's not good idea.
ı just realized something about video. at the beginning the painting ,that stands on wall, probably Mona Lisa was normal but in the last Picture mona lisa had glasses on . Parents could notice it ! :D
Hi Wolvi141,
Well spotted! I think the parents probably would find out about the glasses sooner or later!

I think if we have a party . we should ask parents , join with we ., my parent always happy when they meet my friends . we will make they fun by that. We don't need dress up or have music at party . just rather together for cooking and have good meal.
I never lie to my parents nor i can keep any secrets.As far as parties are concerned , my parents would never allow me, even if i ask them. It's because they don't like the idea of hanging around with friends.
It's impossible for me to organize a party at my house without my parents knowing because my mum doesn't go to work and she's always at home. Plus I'm not that type of a girl which would invite friends to come round and let them make a mess. If I want to have fun with my friends my parents don't mind and let us watch movies, playing board games, gossip etc.
I think that the parents know everything and it's very hard to keep a secret because they know you best.
Absolutely no!
I don't think a secret party is a good idea...Because if your parents find it out, they may punisht you and lose their trust. You'll have more fun if you know that your parents let you have a party =)
No!!!!!!I I think it isnt good idea.
ABSOLUTELY NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No, that isn't possible.If I do something like that and than they find out...... :3 ... If I want party, I'll tell them and they will allow me to do the party. But that's isn't godd idea.:)
no because it is very dangress maybe my friends are bad maybe bribour We don't now
i am small to make party only and so i like to make party with my parents,it is a good idea
No, I would never do that. They understand me completely and there's no reason to have a party and not to tell them. I'd feel bad later, because I usually tell them about such things, and they'll allow me to have a party if I want, so I don't need to lie.
maybe yes or maybe no......
I would never tell my parents a lie! If I wanted to have a party, I would ask their permission! But I don't like parties very much, because I don't like mess and noise. I prefer seeing my friends just to talk and have a snack.
Absolutely no! I can`t go to the party without telling that my parents.
I think that isn`t a good idea.I always tell my parents and they
are proud for me. They believe in me. Me too.
if my parents come with me at the party they will not let me dance a lot with my friends.... this is not a good idea :(
hah it's not a big deal,of couse i have done it before, but the bad moment is when you need to clean up all mess,my friends hepls me a lot then :)
Absolutely not! I don't think it's a good idea to have a party without parents finding out..It looks really thrilling to have a secret party but if you do it than you will feel guilty for the rest of the month...having fun with some friend is not a bad idea but your parents should be aware of it. I really enjoy the video and i liked the topic as much as i liked the end of the story. if something goes wrong and you mess up the place than you will lose your parents trust ....
Thank you for this video,Miley
