Reply #12: When my friends and I were growing up, we did lot's of things....

[rasputin1952]

but we never destroyed propriety.

Yes, we did drink, and experiment w/mind altering substances, but never once, did we do anything that remotely bordered on wanton destruction. I will admit, we did break things, but we did go over and repair/or offer to have repaired what ever was broken.

We had fun, and lots of it, but destruction of property was out of the question.

I might suggest getting w/the parents, but if this is an ongoing thing, unfortunately, the police may be the only answer. I would avoid that at except as a last recourse, but you have the right to protect your property. With luck, you'll get an apology from the kids, and they will fix what they broke.

Good luck.....:D
