There's always the potential for anyone to go off the rails.
I personally, between you lot, me and the garden gate, have never paid my tv licence, not a good example at all, I know, but I resent it, its very grasping to charge it at all when they could just fund themselves by adverts like other channels do.

Oh, get me started on the TV Licence and I will go on for ages about it, I hate the accursed thing and I don't have to pay for one yet myself but I will begrudge every single penny of it when I do.
I would scrap that dinosaur tax on everyone elgigible to pay it tomorrow.
The political party that has the courage to say it will abolish this near and intimidating robbery from people would get masses of votes rushing in for them.
As to the topic, if I have Children when I am older and they committed a crime, I doubt,( unless it was a really serious one involving violence or a sexual crime), that I would turn them in myself but I would encourage them to do so themselves.
I wouldn't take the blame for them though on crimes,I believe we have to face our own mistakes and wrongdoings,however, I would always be there as a strong support,standing by any Children I may have in that scenario.
