Recently, the teenage daughter asked for a birthday party to which the dad agreed only on the condition that she will stay out of trouble and do well in tests.
However, one recent incident where the teenager was caught carrying alcohol in a school bottle led to one of the classmates getting sick, and going to the nurse made the dad get very upset. As a result, the daughter is grounded and all her electronic gadgets taken away and her birthday party canceled.
