In your shoes, I would have told the kid to get home as his parents were expecting him. I don't think it's appropriate to impose your parenting style on their family. Having expectations for your minor child to come home when you tell them to come home is fairly standard practice. You were a party to a major disrespect to them IMO.
You are welcome to your opinion. I am convinced that we made the right choice.
