Not driving related but I want your advice

As I "know" you all after 4 years on thr group, I would appreciate some advice.

Over the last month, 3 of my sons mates have decided to shout and yell when they pbutt our house at 2am, on the way back from a local night club. Each time we have been woking up as they call out to my son (asleep in bed) on their way past.

Two nights ago, I was asleep in bed when they turn up in a car to pick my son up. They decide to stand on the pavement to chat, rather than sitting in the car. This goes on for 10 minutes, with the chat getting louder and louder. Eventually, at midnight, one of them shouts out loud for my son to hurry up. This was too much for me so I opened the window and told them to pee off otherwise I would come down and help them on their way.

Yes, a little over the top maybe, but I have asked my son to tell them to keep the noise down on several occasions. I also have the neighbours to worry about also. I just snapped on this occasion.

Last night at 12am, the phone rings. I pick it up and hear two of my sons mates talking to each other, so I don't say anything. They hung up and two minutes later a car screaches to a halt outside, somebody gets out, runs down the path to loudly knock on the door. They run back to the car, wheelspin away while given the horn plenty for 10 seconds.

My two sons were staying at a girlfriends 50 miles away last night. I am unsure the best way to proceed.

1.. Do nothing and they will lose interest. 2.. Talk to my son to have a word with them. 3.. Have a word with them myself by visiting their houses (all live with parents) 4.. Give them a slap, maybe this is more likely to end it than 1. 5.. Talk to the police. 6.. Other suggestions.

Apologies for going off topic, but I do feel like I know you all!
