A family recently here in Ballarat were all sleeping in their home at nightime when more than one person came into their home and stole their wallets/purses and then took the keys of the car & took their car for a drive ... i was so shocked to hear it, i think thankfully i lock my doors each night ... but during the daytime who would think people would just waltz into someone's home.

My DP grew up in a small country town and it's common for people there to just walk into someone's house without knocking, we often stay weekends at his folks in this particular small town and i woke during the morning to make a quick dash to the loo to find some strange man who turned out to be the neighbour up the road who just invites himself in, needless to say i have since experienced other's doing it so i make sure my hair doesn't look like a huge birdsnest before i step out of their guestroom

Dianne, good on your DH speaking up & ' warning ' these teens to not just walk in without notice !!!
