Once the girl enters my house, it becomes my issue. As a parent, THAT is what bothers me the most: why are you coming INTO MY house, little girl?! (That part creeped me out!) If this had just been phone calls/texts or only occurred at school, that's something different, and I would involve the school and let them handle it. If the girl's parents go off on me, well then, that's different. But the first step would be to talk to the parents and that can be done civilly. It's all about HOW things are said.
Now, if homegirl's mom wants to take it there, I would end the conversation, again, civilly, and do what I needed to do to keep my child safe. Yes, the kids are just 16, but walking in uninvited to someone's house is not cool.
srmom, please keep us posted.
