[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) every single one of you would try to help your kid if they did this. So lay off your high horses please.

2) I doubt she will get jail time but that’s what a good lawyer is for.

"Help your kid" has different meanings to different people. Daddy bailing her out is not what I have in mind.

If my teen got a DUI I would "help" them by sending them to rehab and doing everything I could to make sure that they don't drive for the foreseeable future. I would expect them to suffer some consequences that hopefully will teach a lifelong lesson.[/quote]

This 10000%!  I would not allow them to drive for several years, I would send them to rehab and I would put consequences in place and make their life difficult for a few years as well (very close to what would have happened if I didn't hire a great lawyer)

Then again, my kids know not to drink and drive.  They know they can always call us (if at home/nearby) and also ALWAYs call and UBer/Lyft and we will pay for it, no questions asked.  If you are going to drink anything, you do NOT drive.  It's quite simple. Akin to, if you are going to drive, you may not text/surf the web/play on your phone.  If you are caught doing that as a teen, my kid's would loose their driving privileges for some time.  [/quote]
