[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

Oh please. I love it when DCUM posters get all hysterical for no reason. She asked for a layer recommendation. You have no idea what else they’re doing or not doing. A DUI at 19 does not equal a necessary trip to rehab. Not that you or anyone else could make an adult do that. Calm down. [/quote]

No, you calm down.  A 19 yo who drives drunk has done TWO illegal things---DUI and drinking underage.  If my teen is living at home/I'm paying for college/I'm paying for anything for them, they will have to then follow my house rules for doing something illegal, dangerous and stupid.  My kid would be in rehab/therapy to address their need to drink, they would also be in intensive therapy to help understand why they drove when drinking, as we live in an area where Uber/Lyft are readily avaialbe and we as parents will always pay for that  (sort of like how we would always pick them up in MS/HS from a party/friends place/anywhere they were uncomfortable)

The 19yo could have KILLED someone.  Next time they might, so I'd be doing everything to insure that next time never happens

DO you have an actual lawyer recommendation? That is all OP asked for.[/quote]
Nope I do not.  Because I've never had a family member or friend drive drunk, so we don't need DUI lawyers.

However, if you ask for that on a public forum, it's only logical to assume you are going to get some options on the issue as well.  If you cannot handle that, then perhaps just google and don't ask on a forum.

So you have nothing to contribute by your own admission. Thank you for being honest. Good bye.[/quote]

Goodbye? Oh good. Glad you’re leaving.[/quote]

No, not going anywhere. People like you who take every opportunity to shit on people when they are down and can't possibly see that they are ALSO imperfect are the bain of my existence. Take a dose of humility, stop being a d88k and/or STFU. Your choice. No one asked for your useless judgment. [/quote]

OMG---stop supporting drunk drivers under the premise "people do stupid things". Many people simply do not do stupid things to that level.  I never did, my husband never did, and our kids have not.    Telling people facts when they have "chosen to drink and drive" or "chosen to do anything stupid that is within their control" is not "shitting on them".  
You can choose to do whatever the hell you want in life, however there are consequences, and you have to deal with them.  You can't just try to weasel your way out of a DUI and expect others to just accept that.

No one cares about your opinion or acceptance. Every person deserves to be represented in court if accused of a crime. That is all OP asked for. [/quote]
