Having 3 sons I have been known to dispense a bit of advice. One thing I have always told them:
"If you are ever arrested (and you damned well never be or I will kill you) never, ever talk to the cops. Keep your mouth shut. What you do not understand is that cops can lie to get you to say what they want. It is the way it works. Say I want a lawyer or I want to make a phone call. And for God's sake never talk with your new roomates."
And then I say don't call me. No way, no how am I bonding you out.
Fortunately, I have good kids although my middle son was touch & go for a while. He found out Mom will not bail him out...DUI. I made him sweat it out for about 36 hours. I finally picked up his paycheck, took it to the jail, had the cops give to him to sign, cashed it & he bailed himself out. I didn't pay for a lawyer either..so he had to do 3 weeks at the end of his probation. Oh yeah, did I say I wouldn't lend him his probation fees? I'm a hard ass Mom.
I'm a hard ass Mom.

Good for you! Tough love. thanks
Most DUI's theycite and release on OR, unless there's been an injury. Why'd he have to bail?
