Relatable, Facebook, Parents, Party and Teenagers: Caught in 4K

Caught in 4K

Today, my parents, who are out of town but driving back tomorrow, called to see how I was doing. They asked if I'd thrown a party in their absence, and I said no. My dad replied, "Well I'm currently looking at pictures on Facebook of our kitchen with beer and a bong on the table." FML

Today, I thought I had gotten away with throwing a party while my folks were gone the night before. They came home and I was as sweet as possible. I could tell they were not buying it, but I thought I was in the clear. Later, they told me I had drunk-dialled them and spilled the beans. FML

Today, my parents were coming to visit me at my brand new apartment. I made dinner and served them the cake my roomate had left for me in the fridge. Thirty minutes after they left, I was so baked that I couldn't think straight. I still don't know if my parents made it home. FML

Today, my parents told me they were going out for dinner tonight. I jokingly responded "Sweet! I am totally having a keg party then!" My dad responded "Keg parties are only for kids who have friends." He was serious. FML

Today, I came home after a party to my parents, who confronted me. They said that my phone had made a pocket call to them and they heard a good half hour of people talking about drugs and alcohol. I confessed at that point. I checked my phone after. I hadn't called them in 3 days. FML

Today, I had a bunch of parties while my parents were out of town. I made sure to clean up absolutely everything, I even vacuumed the stairs. As they pulled up, I noticed all of the trash bags filled with beer cans blocking their way into the garage. FML

Today, my parents came home after being out of town for the weekend. I stayed home, did homework and completely cleaned the house, thinking I could earn some brownie points with them. They saw how clean the house was and accused me of covering up a party. FML

Today, I found out that the day I moved out of my parents' house, they invited my whole family over and had a party to celebrate the fact that I was gone. FML

Today, I was checking the Facebook event page to see who is attending the party I am having this weekend, since my parents are going out of town. 1 person has confirmed. My mom. FML

Today, my whole family was sitting in the kitchen. My sister was stoned and passed out in our dog's bed. My dad was drunk, yelling, "Who's your daddy?" at his plate of barbecued meat, and my mom just sat there with that, "What the hell happened to my life?" look on her face. FML

Today, my parents got back from their weekend ski trip. I had a few parties over the weekend and had cleaned up absolutely EVERYTHING; beer cans, throw up, spilled drinks, etc. The only thing I forgot about was the condom someone left in my parents bed. FML

Now see, the problem isn't the party - it's that your understanding of trust networks is fuzzy. If you can't throw a party without some nitwit posting pictures of it on FaceBook, you don't know and understand the crowd you're hanging out with well enough to trust them. This implies your own judgment may be flawed, and maybe you shouldn't be throwing parties for those people, and should be more responsible about who you do stuff with. At the very least, you have immature friends, who either knowingly did something that could have gotten you all in lots of trouble, or you have friends who will invite such careless people... and you weren't paying enough attention to what was going on to prevent it. I'm sure that parents often expect that if they go away, their kids will get up to stuff. If you're not going to be honest with your parents about what you do (dishonesty makes it so they can't trust you when they find out), you could at least refrain from being so sloppy that they think that you are an immature twit, or develop the impression that you think they're stupid. None of that makes for good relations with the parents. I think most kids will do stuff that their parents would tell them not to. It's part of growing up. When you're responsible enough to be discrete, not get caught, not leave evidence of your shindig, that's at least responsibility, and evidence you can take care of yourself. When your parents see your friends using a bong on your kitchen table, via the internet, or they find a joint between the couch cushions, or all their liquor is gone and the carpet has vomit in it... or if you turn up pregnant... these are all signs that you haven't learned discretion.
