[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here again. I want to add, that the examples of my family and friends are just that. There are plenty of people who are serious alcoholics back home and in every country, I suspect. I am not saying that people in Europe don't have serious alcohol problems. Many, many do.[/quote]
Your examples here and in Europe are something I never encountered, starting with your party that you ended. Your experience is your unique experience.[/quote]

You as a teen and a parent(of teens maybe) have never seen a parent/police break up a party? You never had teen friends drink and sneak drinks to a party? What am I doing wrong then? Or are you saying that I should have let the party go on after I saw kids drinking alcohol they snuck in, just confiscate what I found?[/quote]
You are talking about a parent, not police. Never had parents breake up the party for us, growing up, or for my teens. The parents were either absent or don't care, thus the party location. Maybe it happened to you, because there was an expectation of a party and not a family celebration.
Btw, you said "DD texted them in her invitation that I will be home and will be checking". You understand  that it serves as a warning to find a better way of sneaking alcohol in.[/quote]
