You've never accidentally slept through an alarm before? Why not have a backup plan just to be extra sure? That sounds perfectly responsible to me.

Sure, but your backup plan probably should not involve one of your parents getting up extra early to give you a wake up call. But to each their own, I guess.

This is one of the reasons that pre-booking taxis is a good idea. Typically, they'll call you when they arrive, so they are a really good back-up alarm clock.
