Put yourself in this scenario:
20 years from now, you Mr. Floodian have lived a happy, successful life with a beautiful wife and kids. One day your 17 year old son, who occasionally is a troublemaker, but is really a good hearted kid, comes home crying.
He tells you he was driving drunk, and that he hit a women and her child. He killed them. He confides in you that he is scared out of his mind and he doesn't know what to do. You realise your son is a [i]killer[/i]
Would you turn him in and try to face the victim's family?
Or would you help him cover it up / escape the country / get away?

Though I'm very much in favor of not having kids of my own, I would have him turn himself in. On a side note, I hope this thread isn't secretly asking for advice. :(
