There's the occasional soft-porn video filmed in the school auditorium. But it seems that big, boozy suburban parties are the latest scandal. This is understandable. The innocent sleepover party degenerates into a beer bash, where a couple of star Penncrest High School students allegedly deck a concerned father, and the other participants are as mum as the mob after a successful hit.

Yes, there's trouble in River City, folks. And in Solebury, Upper Providence, even the Main Line. But before hysteria drapes this latest spate of suburban delinquency, remember that there's always been trouble in River City. Yet we have a very long history of very violent youth. And that the suburbs have never been immune.
