It is never easy to make a decision that may be considered unethical, but ultimately it depends on the magnitude of the consequences of both making and not making such a decision. Everyone’s situation is different and there is no clear-cut answer; factors such as emotions, relationships with others, legal regulations and one's personal moral compass must all be considered when making such an important judgement call. In general though, it’s usually better to consult with others close to you who might have an unbiased opinion before taking any action that could be potentially damaging to yourself or others.

No, it is never okay to make an unethical decision in order to protect a loved one. There are much better ways that don’t involve unethical behavior. If your loved one is in a difficult situation, there may be legal or ethical solutions available to assist them that do not involve taking part in unethical activities. Additionally, you can offer emotional support and guidance through the situation – helping them explore the available options and make well-informed decisions about how best to proceed.
