No. But why?
First, a curfew only restricts the time someone can get into trouble.

Having a curfew will add stress on the teen because they will freak out about running late.

If your teen drives, which most do nowadays, they might stress out about running late and might not make it home.

Curfews don’t help much, just instead, waste police resources.

A curfew doesn’t teach a teen to be polite, be responsible, or to obey the law.
