This is insane. The parents should have the daughter arrested along with as many other identifiable criminals as possible.

OK, what comes to mind is two words... Honor .... fill in the rest.
I find this in line with the latest from Hollywood - the seemingly unstable families cashing in their daughters problems, now we have Lohan's getting a reality show and book deals on how to parent - all disgusting....

While I certainly can't absolve the young lady for her actions ...... one wonders about parents that would allow a 15 year-old female, home alone, to be having ANY KIND of unsupervised party or gathering ...... afterall the parents are adults (theoretically, at least) and really, really should know better - the greater sin is theirs.
....... ya think ?
Another article from The Daily Mail. More details. Wow.

The really interesting thing (to me) is the apparent lack of certainty that is seemingly contained in the statement:
"But I must have gone wrong somewhere."
It's almost as though the parent making the statement has SOME DOUBT.
My take would be slightly different .... I would think the relationship between a child and a parent ought be of a high enough quality, and contain enough of a level of trust and honesty, and have such a high level of open communication between the parties involved that that which the parent instills in the child would forego such a result.
It seems to me that depending on "the tv and the movies" to educate one's children isn't much of a way to deliver a quality result. One merely has to consider all the things which are portrayed on TV which are utterly incorrect and false to come to the conclusion that using it as an "authority" for anything is fraught with much peril.
Hiring the "one-eyed monster" to be your nanny, while a relatively low-cost solution initially, might be quite expensive in the long term.
