If it were me, I would 1.) Go to a friend's/relatives house. 2.) Call your brother, tell him what you overheard, and give him the ultimatum that either he calls it off, or you tell your parents, and 3.) Follow up with your threat buy having someone drive you past the house in the evening to see if he cancelled or not, 4.) Call the cops on him if he didn't quit it.
The responder who told you not to be a narc seems to have forgotten that the house does not BELONG to him. Any damage which will probably occur during the party will be to someone else's -- his parents' -- property. Let him trash up his own college apartment in a couple years. Furthermore, get a bunch of dumb teenagers together for rowdy fun, and if something goes seriously wrong there's less of a chance that they will know how to properly respond.

If your parents haven't left yet, tell them what you heard. If they have gone, you need to call and tell them or ask another adult if they could come to stay with you at your house so you will feel safe. That way, an adult would be in the house to supervise and make sure that the party is not held there. Someone needs to know who can make sure it doesn't happen. Too many bad things could happen while your parents are away and you don't want this party to take place. You know there will be trouble and it can be avoided if the party is cancelled.

Just leave it alone. When he has the party stay in your room. If your parents are leaving you two alone for 5 days to go Vegas they are clearly not very responsible and deserve to get their house trashed. Are they really too naive to believe that if you leave an 18 year old kid in a house for 5 days with no supervision he isnt gonna have a party?

Go to a friends place while the party is on so you can honestly say you had nothing to do with it when your parents find out ( and they will trust me!!)
Or just tell your parents but beg them not to tell him it was you that tattled!! Make them say they overheard him on the phone and were wondering when he were going to ask them for their permission? This way your parents think you are being responsible and telling the truth and your brother can be angry at them and not you. Go to a friends place or go outside and pretend you know nothing when they confront him.
Good luck and tell your parents! if something happens to anyone at this party you will feel bad that you didnt speak up sooner.

Ask if you can stay at a friends house close by, Tell your parents, and wait until you have PROOF if you're calling the cops, Like when the party starts,
I can see why you're concerned, Hope i helped and good luck!

You need to tell your parents what you heard your brother talking about. He will probably throw the party whether they tell him to or not, but you shouldn't be there. If you have a firend you can spend the night with, maybe your mom can call her mom and ask her if you can spend the night if your brother throws his party.

tell him not to be dumb and if he gets caught not to drag you in the middle of it and try to stay at a friends house i don't know if telling your parents is the best idea but if you feel that you or your brother might be harmed by this then you should tell your parents but if not then leave and stay somewhere but if you cant stay at a friends house that night then again tell him he better reschedule it so you have somewhere to stay that night if he doesn't listen go ahead and tell him you Will tell someone ...but i would try not to be a snitch if you don't have to but again if you have to for whatever reason then yes tell someone even if its a friends mom

i'm sorry to hearken to that. i won't be in a position to think of myself being in that subject. i'm youthful than you and that i'm no muslim yet all i will think of of is that even though they say/do, it is your existence, no longer theirs. they are in a position to no longer administration you and your existence. you at the instant are not a robotic, you have your individual will and thoughts. you already know your rights as somebody and if I have been you, i might do what i prefer and sense like, if i understand what i prefer. If i prefer to realize a element then I do the circulate and not enable all and sundry supply up me nor deliver me down. no longer by way of fact they're mothers and dads, they're continually actual. now and returned you may desire to persist with your heart and techniques, no longer others'.

If it were my brother I would tell my parents but of course tell them what you overheard and that you are worried. Why are your parents leaving you alone with an 18 year old brother anyway? Don't they realize that 18 year olds are just as irresponsible as 5 year olds. I would honestly tell them the truth. Hope it helps!

i know you might sound like a tattletale but you need to call you parents for you and your brothers safety if you cant call them you need to make a plan with your friends to spend the night that night at their house so you are not there and you don't get hurt or in any kind of trouble
