It would depend on their age, and much they got into trouble. I work at a court so I see this ALL THE TIME! I have worked there 20 years and I still see after all that time the same parents of MEN bailing them out STILL!They are still getting into trouble and that is ridiculous. They are broken people old and paying bond money.I wouldn't do that.

Depended on what he/she did and if he/she was guilty and deserved to be there etc.. But in general once and maybe twice if there was a big time span in between instances. Unless of course it was a felony or violent crime etc...
For example when my son was about 17 my ex-husband owned a used car dealership. He gave my son one of those temporary cardboard type license plates. My son got pulled over... (it was a small town so if you were a 16-17 yr. old boy and farted to loud they would pull you over)....and there was some issue with the dealer tags. Its been about 6 yrs ago but I think they thought the tags weren't legitimate or maybe stolen. He was taken to jail and since it was late at night and I had been out of town moving my daughter into college he ended up having to sit there until the next morning....over something that he had no idea about. I bailed him out the first thing that morning...and we got it dropped.
So you never know what the circumstance might be.

I have bailed my daughter out of jail once. The second, I let her stay there. The third time, there was nothing I could do, and she is in federal prison now for drug charges. I wish, I could have sent her somewhere to get her, after the first time in jail. If they make it to jail once, there is something wrong. it could be the beginning of a long nightmare.

I went to county jail for not completing community service on a minor ticket citation. This was my first ticket and my first jail experience. I am handicapped and take daily medications, and the bail was very minimal, yet my family decided against it to "teach me a lesson." Due to overcrowding, I did not get my daily medication for over 30 days and was exposed to inmates charged with everything from kidnapping, arson, murder, prostitution. I never complained and upon my release was in dire need of medical care, but the lesson gained was that I gave up on my family to a large degree and it left a deep, lonely scar.

My son was 17, on medication for major depression and was also seeing a counselor for suicidal thoughts. He was in the wrong place with the wrong person and was taken to the Adult detention center. I told them that he was on medication and was suicidal. They told me tough, he would not be able to get his meds for 7 days as I could not see him for 7 days unless I bailed him out. This is the same County jail that the deputies had just beaten a man to death in the month before. Yes, I was there the next day to get him out. I knew they did not care if he lived or died in that place. I bailed him out, obtained an attorney and sent him to live with his father. Sometimes sitting in jail does not teach anyone a lesson, but having to go to work to support yourself and pay attorney's fees helps to teach that you pay for your mistakes.

I would never bail them out, nor would I ever give up on them.
I told my children I'd never bail them out from the time they were little. When my oldest actually wound up in jail, he called me asking me to do a little running around to get HIS money, and arrange for a bail bondsman. That, I told him, was fine. But I also told him that if he didn't have enough, he was SOL.
I never had to do it again.
As to giving up, only at their funeral. Some people never change, but if they were my child, it'd be my job to love and counsel and hope for them forever, while also protecting the world from them if, God forbid, necessary.
