[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Inspired by a conversation with a friend.

Would you report your child to the authorities if they commit a crime against you or others?

This is not a specific case, but a hypothetical one, but it got me thinking about unconditional love vs. duty to society. [/quote]

Not reporting a criminal adult child is NOT “unconstitutional love”.

Remember the unibomber, Ted K something? His *family* reported him when no law enforcement in America could figure out who was setting the bombs. His family absolutely loved him. But they still did the right thing. It’s just what regular decent people do. I’ll never forget his mother describing how when he was a very young child, he had to be hospitalized for a long time. She said after he came home, he was never the same.

Being in early childhood development, it seems like he was horribly abused or neglected during that hospitalization.

Theodore Kaczynski was also a child prodigy who was bullied attended Harvard as a young age and as a minor was tortured by a professor working on CIA's psychological warfare research.

Like so many victims of abuse, he paid it forward to other easier targets inatead of back at his persecutors.
