Even accepting as Gospel the admittedly far-fetched premise of: "Parents travel internationally without noticing their kid is missing":
GIANT PLOT HOLE #1: International flights from Chicago to Europe leave in the evening, not morning.

GIANT PLOT HOLE #3: Mom frantically calls police to report... essentially... a missing kid.

GIANT PLOT HOLE #4: Hoping to get back to Chicago as quickly as possible, Mom gets on a plane from a major hub in Dallas to a much smaller regional airport in Scranton for no apparent reason.
GIANT PLOT HOLE #4: The Pizza boy gets "shot at" by "Kevin" and... just goes back to work? Regardless, he doesn& #39;t call the cops AFTER BEING SHOT AT... IN WINNETKA.
GIANT PLOT HOLE #5: Kevin knows exactly when Harry & Marv are going to rob his house, and has hours of lead time...
...but doesn& #39;t call the cops until after they& #39;ve broken in AND run through all the traps.

GIANT PLOT HOLE #6: What, exactly, was the point of the glue/oscillating fan/feathers booby trap?

...for maximum sight gag potential?

GIANT PLOT HOLE #7: Wet Bandits sustain multiple injuries, each of which would result in broken bones or death in middle-aged men of average build, but both are rendered immediately unconscious by single blow from a snow shovel wielded by a septuagenarian.
