[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously. I am shocked at the number of supposed "parents" who are sitting there and saying to mind your business. This is your business: their kid threw a party. Your kid was at said party, was given alcohol (which is illegal) and pot(also illegal, even if the potheads up in our government now wish that wasn't the case), this has affected your child, and so to let this continue would be to ensure a location for juvenile delinquency continues to run as a party house.

If you don't report it, you will be supporting a public nuisense. If I was in your position, I would have called the cops immediately upon learning about this party, and immediately afterwards been talking to the "parents" that seem to think their kid is mature enough to stay home alone when they clearly just want to drink and get high.

If the situation was flipped, would you want to be notified? I would, certainly. It would be rough, but I would need to know, and I would even say that not reporting it is child neglect. Because should this been my teenage son throwing the party, you bet your ass I would want to know so I knew to put him into rehab for alcohol/drug addiction, and give him the severe punishment needed to help reform delinquents.

I am a parent but I also remember being a high school kid -- did you never attend a party at someone's house where there was alcohol and/or pot when you were in high school?  And have you never gone to a party at a kid's house when the parents were out-of-town?!  Come on - it was practically a right of passage when I was 16.

This is not the crime of the century.  [/quote]

NP here but actually I didn't attend any parties like that when I was in HS.  Yeah, I was such an unpopular dork.  Partied and dated like crazy in college though![/quote]

I did attend parties like this in HS back in the 80s. I'd have been mortally offended if anyone called me or anyone else a "deliquent". That word I associate with drop outs who deal drugs on the street corners of cities, not suburban kids in a well off neighborhood having a party ffs.[/quote]
