If you did that though your wife might never forgive you, especially if something really bad happened to your son afterwards. I think you would have to let that choice up to your wife, which, as a mother, should be her right. I know I wouldn't appreciate someone taking away my chance to protect my child.

Just a few years in an Indonesian slammer..........that could kill you or mess you up for life!

All she'd have to say is, I did the packing and I put it in that bag

Would they really believe she had planted it in her sons bag though?

But if she wants to take the blame so be it, let her do the jail time.

It doesn't matter, If she confesses to it how are they going to prove she didn't?

Well either way makes no difference if she wants to take the blame and do jail time for something her son was stupid enough to do then thats up to her.

I think it'd be the fact of where the jail is, he could end up dead or in prison for life because of it. It's all well and good saying well he was stupid enough to get himself into the situation etc but If it was your child, I don't think that would give you any comfort and you would try to protect them, no matter what.

I'd tell the police that I packed all the bags, and did not put the weed in there.

I'd plead ignorance to it's existence. My defence would rely on me claiming someone had planted it on me at the airport or the hotel.

I'd make sure the rest of my family didn't take any of the blame. If I had to face the jail-time or the death penalty, so be it.

Actually, after thinking about that, they might try to claim my kid put it in there, so he'd still be in trouble.. So maybe.. I'd better just say it's mine, I packed it, I knew it was there and let that be it.

Yeah, especially if it were in his bag, then they'd definitely think it was him, just because you packed the bags, doesn't mean he didn't put it in there

so yu guys are more worrying about gaming the system. Both yu and yur son would be in jail then. stupid.

What does gaming the system mean? :suspect:

I'd say it was mine, then assuming I get out okay I'd go mental at my son..

I think 'gaming the system' means finding a way to talk your way out of it.

Id say it was my son's and tell them that the wife is covering up, Id be so mad at the fooker but of course feel guilty as its my son. Not fair to take such drastic consequences off the back of somebody's elses idiot actions though. Plus, my son wouldnt be able to live with what he done, and the wife would probably end up resenting him.

I would interrupt and say it's my sons

Oh right, thanks

and if something terrible happened to your son because of it or ended up dead, your wife would end up resenting you

I've taken the wrap off my mum for my younger bro(was a one off he assured me :suspect:). This is nothing.

I dont think she would half as much because its the son's own doing. Course it will take time but if the wife and husband are strong they will eventually be able to cope. And there is always the possibility that the son would get a lighter punishment because of age.

I don't think so, I think if my husband stopped me saving my son and he died or was seriously hurt because of it, I would never get over it.

PS lol at our moral clashes :laugh:

:laugh:

I think its age and that you have children of your own, I can see how it probably would differ.

Yeah, probably. I mean if he was caught in Ireland or Britain, I'd definitely let him take the blame, it's just how dangerous and unfair those places can be would worry me

I'd be more confused at the thought of getting the death penalty or life in jail over a bag of weed
But i dunno what i'd do as i have no kids

Seriously! i wouldn't even let my kids leave the state, let alone the country, not even to Canada.

When i was in HS one of good friends went on the senior trip just down to TJ, and she was gang raped.

There's no way i'd let my kids leave the country. No way in hell.

They canm do all the traveling they want when they work for the state department, until then ain't gonna have a passport,k sorry!

This country is big enuf for you to explore until yu turn 18.

I don't think there is a choice other than to claim it.

They can do hair follicle tests to detect who uses marijuana - that is if they can be a*sed when they've already got a fall guy willing to confess. Oh, and I would willingly confess to save my son who of course, would have a lifetime of guilt because I'd done his time, or was executed. It's a lose/lose situation.
