Teen house parties going amuck while the parents are away were in all of those movies. Maybe word of mouth didn’t spread via craigslist/facebook/twitter, but there have always been ways to spread it.

When I had teens at home and my wife and I were going to be away for the evening or weekend, I would go talk to the neighbors and explain that we were leaving a teen alone and that if ANY strange cars/people came by the house, to give us a call. So I knew about the possibilities even back then. We didn’t want to come back and find Animal House in our living room.[/quote]

Yes, obviously, I’ve seen movies about this. You don’t think movies are real life, though, do you? Most here seem determined that this girl or her friends had something to do with it. Perhaps that is the case, and I am still trying to find this out, but this would probably be one of the last types of kids I would expect this from. Naturally, I wouldn’t have posted it if I thought that were the case (in fact, that scenario happened next door a few years ago and it was clear what was going on).
