Dear Amy: Our 25-year-old daughter was charged with a DUI over the weekend. She has never been through anything like this and is begging for our help. Her dad and I believe that she needs to face the consequences of her choice to get in and drive her car when she’d had too much to drink.

In today's Ask Amy column, Amy Dickinson responds to parents who are concerned about their daughter's recent DUI.

Her dad and I believe she needs to face the consequences of choosing to drive when she had too much to drink. What do you think?

In terms of “helping,” you could attend any court hearings with her, help her to find an attorney, and help her to locate the public bus stop or find alternate transportation if/when her license is suspended.
