Yes!

Parties...are parties. You don't get too many of them. So why can't you stay longer? Have some fun that you wouldn't have in about a month. Parties should only be on Saturdays so you can stay up late with no fear of being late to school the next day. Everyone needs to have fun once in awhile, but not toooooo often. Most parties are at night, not in the day, so staying up late would make the party longer. Parties are a great way to communicate with old friends, not just one, but many all together in one place! Parties should last longer than 12:30 in the morning.

No!

No way! What if you're sleepy and you live an hour drive away from the party? What if you're drunk (since people often drink beer at parties)? That wouldn't be good, but it does happen. If you walk, you could get really cold outside and you could be really sleepy if you drive. Most people eat too much at parties, which isn't good for your health. Sleeping late isn't good for your health either. Is having fun important or health more important? It's a really bad habit to stay up late like people are doing now. So...say no to parties that last longer than 12:30am!
