Would you ever inform the police of your child's criminality?

Probably the most stupid survey I have seen on here. You never know what you would do until you come face to face with any situation.

I said "no" to first one - because that would be a case where he would be marched back to the shop with the goods. I meant to say no to 3 because that would be a case to be dealt with by the medics, but can't change my mistake with voting.

All the others would most definitely be yes!

No it isn't. Quite a few people would know exactly what they would do! Many people have their own stance on "morality" and it's interesting to see what peoples' personal line is. And I'm sure out of a membership of over a million, there will be quite a few who have had to face the many scenarios that the op has listed. Don't like it? Then don't bother posting on the thread, job done!

When my son was little, we were in Woolworth, he kept asking for sweets, i told him no and why, he kept on and went very quiet, he took a pick n mix sweet.

i told him that you can't just take sweets without paying no matter how much you want them, took him to the security guard by the door and told him what my son had done and asked him what he would do about it, the security guard just laughed, i was hoping for him just to have a talk to him, to tell him it was wrong.

Security thought it was funny.

Bit harsh , most people have an idea how they'd react to certain circumstances, I'm not asking for definitive answers.

You forgot to add ......

"Accidentally killed older half-sister with a small jewellery box"

Obviously we'd just all have a big hug and forget about it!

I'm just sitting here discussing this with my 17 yr old. I'm saying "Yes, I'd grass you up for that one, and that one and probably that one" etc etc.

He just told me....."You'll have a job finding my guns and drugs anyway, you never clean my room hahaha" :eek::eek:

(Which is true!)

j.e.j.

You'd need to tell the Police about all of them, except possibly nr 8 and nr 3

I'm shocked that nearly a quarter of respondents wouldn't report a deliberate murder.

i'd hope that any child of mine wouldnt be so daft as to do any of the listed but i'd turn them in for all (only possible exception if they and gf/bf were both under 16 and sent pics as then i'd sit them both down and tell them how daft they were!)
