NIC Dilemma

Ryan, 17, has been saving up money to buy a ticket for this concert
of rock band. His parents have discouraged him from going as the
concert will surely be with a rowdy crowd. The band is notorious for
having out-of-control audience who somehow manages to get
drunk and stoned during the concert. Ryan, agreed no to watch
anymore. But a day before the concert , Nic, 15-year-old brother of
Ryan, saw a corner of what appeared to be a concert ticket
showing in the pocket of Ryan’s bag. Nic examined it and
confirmed it was indeed a ticket. Looking at Ryan’s bag, Nic also
found an extra shirt and 2 sticks of Marijuana. So he figured Ryan
will go to the concert after all. That night ,Ryan told his parents that
he was spending tomorrow night at a classmate’s house for a
school requirement. Then later that evening, he told Nic of his plan
to go to the concert. Nic didn’t say anything, but he found it difficult
to sleep that night, thinking whether to tell their parents or not.
