Default Would you ever shop your child to the police?

Oliver Garwood, 18 years old, has been sentenced to 2 years and 8 months for throwing a fire extinguisher from a roof during the student riots, after his mother turned him in to the police. I know it was a serious offence, but compared to some of the lenient sentences handed down to serial thugs and paedophiles, it seems draconian and his life is now probably ruined.

Would you shop your child (or any other close relative or friend for that matter) if you knew they had committed a serious crime?
