A 16-year-old has been charged with the murder of another teenager in Christchurch - the third death of teen in the city this year.

It follows the shooting dead of 16 year old Connor Whitehead last month, and the fatal stabbing of another 16-year-old, Zion Purukamu, at a party in Fendalton in August.

Conan Young sought some expert advice for the parents of teens, anxious to know how they can keep their children and their friends safe on the weekend.
