Should I tell them theres nothing to worry about?

[Blanketfull]

The local FB group is full of concerns about a group of young men regularly seen in the early hours. "Three tall skinny boys wearing baseball caps and rucksacks". People are worried that they're up to no good out in a "gang" at that time of night, although there are no specifics about what they're doing wrong.

I think this is my son and his friends walking home from their closing shift at McDonalds....

I wouldn't bother feeding the gossips tbh.

“I’ll ask my son to keep an eye out. He’s often walking home from work with his friends at that time”

.. see how many nibble.

This.

That's hilarious OP. Reply 'I think one of them might have approached my house last night'.

I feel like it would be kind to let them known there are no marauding gangs, but also that they might think badly of DS and his friends anyway. Obviously finishing work at 2am doesn't necessarily mean they're not up to not good.
