There are a lot of things where I can abide white lies, but the death of someone you care for is not one of those things. I'd cease communication with any 'friend' or acquaintance who thought they could fool me in such a way.
Unfortunately for these children, they have no way of ceasing communication with the faculty of their school. Though I don't think a "mental anguish" type of suit would hold any type of merit, this is a very unethical thing to do, if not
illegal.
Even if it does 'teach' children not to drink and drive, it also secondarily teaches them that it's OK to lie when you're trying to prove a point.
