Why not? Because I want my kids to lead lives of virtue and respectability.
What if your kid was in his 50s, and has spent decades showing they’re not going to change and you know the reason they’re such a shit person is you helped them escape consequences their whole lives.
To the point where they literally write an autobiography admitting to a litany of crimes?
Would you continue to shield him of consequences to the point you pardon him for “any and all crimes” over more than a decade?
I think you misread my comment. I described why I would not pardon him.
And I agree with that, because it’s a child you are teaching.
I was asking if you hadn’t ever let you kid face consequences till his 50s, he publicly confessed for crimes you were aware of and didn’t turn him in.
Because at 50 years old… You’re not teaching them a lesson.
So would you continue knowing your son is gonna just keep smoking crack and breaking laws, or would you treat them like any other person and throw them headfirst into the justice system like the crime bill you wrote in 1992 did to tens of millions of actual children for 32 years?
OP’s question was a out whether I would encouragey child to do whatever they want, lneing I could remove any criminal consequences. I would not so encourage them. Grind your axe elsewhere.
Mods keep removing political comments in a post that’s clearly political. But leave the post up. Nice!
Post is borderline political. It’s a line ball.
Too many complaints about being political. Locking.

No because morality and integrity.

I would not. People should not do things that are morally wrong, regardless of whether they will be punished for it or not.
