Snitches get stitches ?
Long story short. My oldest son ( 19) away at tech school , snitched on someone for breaking dorm rules . He is trying to keep his nose clean and get through this program without any troubles . I guess, had this guy got caught , all the roommates would be held liable , and would lead to expulsion .
So , this has led to him now being threatened by the kid and some of his buddies, and now , he is kind of the target of the floor of the dorms . He says , people are spreading rumours about him , and harrassing him . He told me he is scared .
I tried to have a heart to heart with him, and mentioned that my policy has always been that no good comes from snitching about anything.
Unless you have taken some sort of oath , hold a public office , or some ones well being is at stake, its not your place, mind you bidness , keep your head down, shoulders up , and stay focused on your own path . Everything else is just background noise .
Whats your policy? if you see something , do you say something, or keep a blind eye and move on ?
Another one of those societal ethics quandries
