ok my friend called me up and told me theres this party like right up the road from me!! it starts at like 8..but im not going to ask my mom if i can go..cuz how would i word it? if you have a good idea on how to word it ..thats an automatic 5 for you guys. I was thinkin..if not to just sneak out later on. (my dad works the night shift and my mom is usually asleep by 10:30)
What would you guys do? I've never really been to a wild party..usually i jus go to small parties or sweet 16's ..that stuff. My parents would want to know if someone is home..and who knows if they would actually want to talk to the parents being that the party is right up the road from me.
Additional info, added Saturday April 2 2005, 12:11 pm: If i were to tell them about the party..they would want to know who this person is up the road up from me. Truth is, he doesnt live there anymore..they are breaking into it. So its not like i can say "o its my friend jessicas party" because jessica isnt my neighbor. So asking them would be kinda hard. I WAS THINKING..maybe go out to the movies and when i get dropped off by my friend..to just not walk inside..but to walk up the hill when they leave. (i have a long driveway and they probably wont pull in). Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category? Maybe give some free advice about: Families? S_C answered Saturday April 2 2005, 2:58 pm: They're breaking into a house they used to live in so they can have a party???? What the heck!!! Are you stupid? Not to sound rude, but what in the world are you thinking. It's one thing to sneak out, we've all done it. It's another to go to a party and break the law by illegaly having it in someone else's house (even if the house is just for sale or something)
I would just tell the truth and see if you can go. Be like mom, me and some friends are going to hang with *Jessica* tonight, is that cool?
If she asks what you're going to do be like "Not sure, whatever they feel like doing"
But if the party is going to be in a house that they're breaking into then I wouldn't go AT ALL!!! I agree with Michele (or whoever it was) that was talking about the money. The money it'll cost for being fined when the police find out, the money it'll cost you for repairs to the house, the money of the fine you'll get in court, the trouble you'll be in with your parents. I'm sure you have a brain, so use it.
Now if you meant something else by breaking it, please explain, but otherwise it's a stupid idea. Most likely someone around that house is going to call the cops saying a loud party is going on and the cops will break it up anyway. At least if that's what happens make sure the party you're having is legal. No drugs, no alcohol, and make sure you haven't broken into the house.
Every teen has done something their parents don't approve. I know a kid who was caught with pot, grounded 6months, and his parents give him like a blood test, or a urine test or something to see if he's smoked. I know a party that ended with 4 cops 2 paramedics, it was a party at a friend of a friends house, not a cool way to end the party. If you're sneaking out to go to a party, at least follow the law. Use your head, don't you have some kind of conscience¿¿¿???
All I'm going to say is it's a stupid idea. If you want to you can use what I said "Mom, me and some other people are going to hang with Jessica tonight" "What are you girls going to be doing" "It's up to them really, I don't care, whatever they want to do"
There's your conversation. But please, if you're doing something illegal, reconsider. Especially at a party. That's the easiest place to get busted, especially if you have the kind of neighbors that will call the cops if you're too loud. Have fun, but be safe. ~ <3 always, Kate [ S_C's advice column | Ask S_C A Question ]
rememberxforever answered Saturday April 2 2005, 2:29 pm: uhhh im not sure if this is the adivce you want but i think you shouldnt go.
"they are breaking into it"...right there is i bad idea....
plus if you DO get caught you will be in big trouble and your parents will most likely lecture you and lose trust in you. plus if you are like me your concience will be killing you......
plus because you posted this some part of you must no its not a very good idea
karenR answered Saturday April 2 2005, 2:26 pm: You may not get this edit but if you do....:) glad you aren't going. It really wouldn't be worth it. I'm proud of you! :)
If you think you won't get caught, think again. Soon as the party get's going good the neighbors will call the cops. When you call mom from the police station she will know. Then on top of that, you no longer have her trust anymore and it will be YEARS before you are allowed to do anything. [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
gp4l answered Saturday April 2 2005, 1:38 pm: well the only thing i can tell you is their is going to be consequences to whatever decision you make and you need to be ready to accept any consequences that might come along for your actions but if you are really set on going to this party there is alot of ways you can go about it..first you can be totally honest with your parents but that probably wouldnt work...next you can sneak out but your taking big risk of getting caught that way...also you can lie to them and tell them your going to the movies but if you do that they might ask to see your movie stub so thats not good..what i would probably do is find one of my girlfriends that is going to the party and ask them if you can sleep over that night then after you ask ,ask your mom if you can sleep over your friends house and if your mom wants to talk to her mom or dad thats no problem cause its not like your not gonna sleep over her house(they can drop you off at her house and never have to know about the party)thats what i would do except if its on a school night then your screwed.....hope i helped [ gp4l's advice column | Ask gp4l A Question ]
SexyHal answered Saturday April 2 2005, 1:01 pm: Well I dont think you should sneak out because I have done that before for the same thing and I got into so much trouble when i got home plus my parents lost trust in me and you dont wanna lose that. I think you should just tell her that you and your friend wanna go to a party with some kids from school. When she ask you talk to a parent or if someone is gonna be there tell her the truth because if she finds out you lied its gonna be more trouble. I dont mean to tell her they are breaking in or anything just say your not sure and that you will be home at a decent time. I advise you not to lie whatever you do. Good luck. I hope I helped [ SexyHal's advice column | Ask SexyHal A Question ]
Michele answered Saturday April 2 2005, 12:42 pm: DId you say they are breaking into this house to have this party?
OK, if you want to get arrested. If you want them to call you dad out of work to come and get ou at the police station, and if you want them to have to pay about $500.00 to get you out of jail tonight, and if you want to have to go to court and stand before a judge with your parents while he asks you :what were you thinking? then fines you (and your parents) an additional $1,000.00 and you will also have to help pay for the damage to the house, which could be in the thousands. AND if you want to be grounded for this whole summer. Go ahead.....sneak out and go to the party. (Hope your family is rich)

lostinside answered Saturday April 2 2005, 12:28 pm: You probably aren't going to like my answer. But I wouldn't go. If your parents found out you'd be in big trouble, and they'd lose trust in you. I don' think it's worth it. But that's just me.
Kels answered Saturday April 2 2005, 12:26 pm: Well, Dont lie to her, i know that parents just want to protect you, believe me, my dad isnt thrilled with the idea that i have a boyfriend, and i cant go to parties unless my parents talk to the parents hosting the party and there are going to be parents there, oh im 15/f. and i hated them for it then, but now i am glad because eventhough i missed out on a lot, i got saved from alot!! like getting drunk, stones, and taken advantage of!!
try to tell them everything you know.
Im going to a party with, Bob, Sue and Sally, and of course other people will be there too. Its right up the street, so if something happens, i can get home right away! I'll bring my cell phone, so you can call me. I promice I wont drink or smoke! I'll only stay out until 12 because the party starts at8. if i since something is wrong, i'll call you or come home! I promice I'll stick with Sally and Sue and Bob!
Try that!!
Just dont lie, they usually find out, and if they dont, you'll feel guilty!!
Have fun!!
good luck!!
always there-
