As an official, do you think that you or one of your partners can swing the momentum of a game by what they call?

Here is the situtation: (this is a rec. league game)
During the 4th quarter, parents of one team feel that their team has been on the short end of the stick for foul calls (so what else is new). The players (11-12 girls) of that team start to feed off of the fans reactions to "no-calls". One girl receives a technical for unsportsman-like behavior. From that point on, my partner starts to call fouls that we haven't called all game for the team that is complaining. This team also happened to be behind bt six points, which is monumental for a 11-12 year old girls game. The "complaining" team still ended up losing by 2, but you could definitely see the change in the game.

As an experienced official, what would you do?
