I am not condoning that either as I think it would be imperative for parents to constantly check in on the party, but I am guessing that often parents have no idea there is alcohol there.
From what I know, they often turn their head and even go away for the night (or weekend) so they don't have to listen to the blasting music. Lots of parents do that, and never admit it.
"Oh yes, we'll be home."
Call first, 'cause your kid is coming, thank you very much, but will be late. Ask for a parent. Sorry, not home. Oh but they said they'd be home. Yep, they all say that.
Wake up, guys. Our kids are lying, and so are a lot of parents.
You don't want to know which "#1" school has this reputation. Actually no school is immune to the same stuff. Just wake up, before it's too late for your kid. Yes, *your* kid.
