Right. It's kind off finished. The update is as follows:
- 50 kids turned up
- at least 20 barfed - some in the kitchen, some in the garden.
- two girls currently not conscious in my lounge
- my son was in bed for ten and is still being sick on his bedroom floor
- according to approximately 50 kids, me and my wife are the coolest parents
- every glass in the house is smashed
- some of furniture is ruined
- there are 15 kids on a tent in my garden currently causing havoc
- my wife is no longer speaking to me, as is the same with all of my neighbours
- I am properly in the doghouse
My other children are having their paties at McDonald's
Good night
Considering you started off by actually allowing 40, and thought it would probably be ok, I think you have been remarkably fortunate. Don't forget to wake your son up early by vacuuming in his room and then making him join in the tidy up.
It's ok to let him and his friends get shitfaced, just need to make sure there are still consequences. Hopefully getting him to associate heavy drinking with having to get up early and scrub floors while his brain aches will keep him on the straight and narrow.(ish)
