a Help! stuck at a secular party URGENT

Postby Momus » Tue Aug 10, 2004 4:47 pm

Hey guys, need some help. I'm with my sis(who is NOT christian) and she's having a party. I was trying to get out, no where to spend the night. Plenty of booze, probably sex. What should I do?!

yeah I would just go up in your room, pray to God. Or blast something likes Newsboys out of your speakers or hit everyone in the head with your Bible till they convert :lol:

but seriously just stay out of it, try to avoid temptation. While being a light for you. But as well try to avoid what they are doing.

Your parents aren't home? Are you allowed to go out places? If so, maybe you should go somewhere else. Like the mall or something.

my suggestion is just to wait it out. Spend some quality time in your room or call one of your friends an djust see if you can stay over there until possibly the party stops.

I'm really sorry to hear you have to put up with this. I'd also lock your door as well, just for saftey precautions.

:( Oh.

Is your sis allowed to have parties like these? She should get into big trouble. I guess all you can do is stay in your room, like the others said. Unless you have a friends house close by to go to, or something. If your sister is allowed to have parties like these, then you should be allowed to go somewhere else. *sympathizes for Momus*

Pretty much what the others said: pray.

If your computer is in you room just stay here with us and chill :cool:

If possible, I would lock the door too; if there's people drinking they might get crazy...:drool: :eh:

If you can reach your Dad, don’t be afraid to call him. Otherwise, run over to a friendly neighbor’s house and wait it out there. Or Barricade the to door to your room with a chair or something if you get scared. Keep the phone near by if the situation gets to dicey.. Sorry, I can’t think of anything else… the best I can do is pray for you. Hang in there.

Um, if it gets too bad, you may want to consider keeping the phone in your room. I know it's a terrible thought that you might just have to resort to calling the cops, but it's just a thought.

Do you have a pastor or youth leader you could call at all? I hope this helps! God bless you.

I take it that you are younger than your sister. That does make things more difficult (I am the oldest, so I could just toss my sister's friends out of the house if she tried to pull something like that :lol: ). If you really can't go anywhere else, then I think the best thing would be to stay in your room, lock to door, and wait it out. If your church is nearby, and there is someone there, I'm sure you could stay with them once you've explained the situation. This is a bad situation, but the only thing you can do is be strong, and push through it.

If your sister isn't supposed to be having a party, then by all means, inform your father so that she will not be able to do it in the future.

If you can't go anywhere, then you really don't have many options. Hopefully someone else will have a bright idea...

Momus, I think you should make sure you dad knows this is going on even if you dont think it'll do much good.

I'll pray for you!

I'm actually going to my first "party" so to speak tonight, but its just the trombone players from band, most of whom I know and 2 parents will be there till the party ends at 12:00 :) *is tired from staying up till 2:30 with friend last night*

Like i said, I'll pray for you!

What I'd do is GO OUTSIDE and wait it out. It's a lot safer than locking up in your room...drunk people will break down doors. If you have a backyard, sneak out and go up in a tree or something and just chill until your parents get home. I know it sounds bad, but it's actually the safest thing to do. You could also call the police. They need to be informed of this kind of thing.

Just don't go out and tell them to stop. Likely, they'll just get angry. Like I said before, either lock the door to your room and put something heavy against the door, or go outside.

If any drunk people try to hurt you, don't be afraid to beat the nightlights out of them.

I'll be praying for you!

Run outside and start screaming your head off, that way people will listen to since you are need of help. But then again, I can just envision how ticked your sister would be, so on second thought, hold it.

All we can do is pray since we're a thousand or so miles away. > . <

Well, if there’s underage drinking, and you don’t plan on making friends and/or have no great love for having your body in one piece, you could call the cops for the heck of it.

Do you have any relatives that live nearby? You could always crash with them.

As far as barricading goes, speaking from experience, makes sure your door swings in to your room if you're gonna barricade it, otherwise, it's just embarrassing.

(hey, I was like, 7, okay???!!!??)

Dressers work awesome. And remember munchies, because once things get going, it might be awkward to go out there on a food run.


BTW, sorry to hear about your mum. I was 12 when I lost mine. If you ever wanna break something together, or just have a this-sucks-fest, I'm always game.

Oh...yeah...that stinks about your mommy. I still have mine, so I can't understand how hard that must be, especially since you're still "young".

We don't want to make you all paranoid about barricades, but it's still a good idea.

My parents said to call the cops so that no kids go home drunk. I suggest doing that anyway because, if the cops come before you can call, you'll be associated with them and get in big trouble.

Most importantly, I'd advise staying calm. Unless the situation actually calls for the police, leave them alone and try to ignore the party as much as possible. If they aren't wrecking your house or something, leave it between yourself and your family (i.e, deal with it after the party). After all, just because people are drinking at a party doesn't mean they're going to attack you, steal your neighbour's car, or start worshipping Satan.
The scientific method," Thomas Henry Huxley once wrote, "is nothing but the normal working of the human mind." That is to say, when the mind is working; that is to say further, when it is engaged in corrrecting its mistakes. Taking this point of view, we may conclude that science is not physics, biology, or chemistry—is not even a "subject"—but a moral imperative drawn from a larger narrative whose purpose is to give perspective, balance, and humility to learning.

Hm...you're in a bad spot. I'm the oldest, so I don't have to worry about this. I have four swords in my room, so no one would mess with me anyway...anyway, I would call the cops just to let them know about it. It'll be easier for them if they know the situation if they have to come. Do that, pray, and if possible, go to someone's house who can give you support, like a good neighbor or a friend's house.

Oh my gosh! *feels bad she didn't see this last night*

I'm so sorry Momus! *hugs Momus* I can't say that I've ever been in you situation, cause like some others on here, I'm the oldest. And my un-beknowest-to-me strength seems to be known by everyone else. (I don't realize how strong I am and end up hurting people when I play around. r_r; Of course.. it does come in handy if I'm ever harassed. *thinks of guy from last year* uu;; Yah he didn't come out of that too well...)

Anyways, they all gave you good advice. So whats going on? *ish worried*
