There's a christmas party tonight but I'm not sure whether to go or not. Our house got broke into about two weeks ago and I'm scared of leaving the house unattended for so long.
I could tell everyone to go and I'll stay at home but it's everyone goes or nobody goes, my mom doesn't want to leave me alone in a house that might come to a dangerous situation.
I don't really want to go but i don't want to break my sibling's spirit, it IS a Christmas party and the last thing I want for them after having a pre-terrible christmas break with someone breaking in is to not go to the only party that they want to go.
But..we'll live if we don't go right?
But..my cousin was so excited, tleling me how hard she picked the presents and that it's that ONE PEFECT NIGHT.

Just make sure you bolt the doors, windows, etc. You could leave a light on in a window visible to the street, and even leave the TV on (kind of loud). That is a bit of a waste of electricity though.
Perhaps you could let a neighbor know of your dilemma, and ask them to keep an eye on the house, and call the cops if someone does break in. For example, you can leave the lights off, and if someone breaks in they might turn the lights on to search for stuff better. The neighbor will most likely see that the lights have been turned on. But I would leave the neighbors alone because that is a pretty big favor to ask on Christmas Eve. And probably whoever broke into your house (if they stole anything) took what they needed. I wouldn't worry.
