I would not lie TO MY LOVED ONES to protect them but I will lie FOR them in order to protect them in a situation such as war. If I had been kidnapped while I was in Iraq in 2004, I would rather lie, be beaten to a pulp, and killed before I would give any information to terrorists that will put my battle buddies at the risk of danger.  |

I would not lie to protect my loved ones if it meant to protect them from being punished for something they have said or done that deserved punishment ie; as in murder, assault, theft and a good chance they could go to jail because of these examples. Now in a case like Lina has mentioned above, that is an entirely different scenario and I agree with what she says, that is lying to save lives...  |

Only if it were a matter of life or death...now, if a loved one participated in a criminal act or even committed it and I had knowledge of it...and if found guilty of that act meant the death penalty...I could not lie to protect them...they did the crime and would have to take whatever punishment they were dealt. It would hurt me to have to tell...but it would be the right thing to do.  |

There are different scenarios that could relate to this and there are some that may require keeping mum.  |

Depends on the circumstances. Lying is one of my biggest pet peeves though.  |

If I had to lie in order to keep them alive, yes. If it was a matter of someone in my family going to jail for something they did, then no. It's situational really.  |

It would depend on the situation...if its something that is not a dead or life situation I probably wouldnt, but if it was something like war, kidnapping....I would in a heartbeat.  |

I would lie to protect my family from danger. I wouldn't lie to keep them from getting the punishment they deserved. However, I would encourage them to fess up to their actions and that their isn't anything that they could do that would change my love for them  |

I like her answer. I think it depends solely on what I'm lying ABOUT. :)  |

if people truly loved you they wouldn't expect you to lie to get them out of trouble. I would lie however to save my wife and daughter from pain, death or other terrible things.  |

I thought about something like this when the drunk driver case was going on for the guy who killed Crash, what if Crash was the one who was drunk, would I be able to get on the stand & lie. I know that my brother would facae the consequences & would not expect us to lie for him, so no, I would not lie to keep them out of trouble for something they know they did was wrong, but I would die trying to protect my family or friends...  |
