How can you be so sure about this?
Surely you are not seriously suggesting that the OP should deliberately provide false information?
Even if you, or someone you know, has been in the same situation and got away with providing false information, this doesn't mean that the OP or the OP's child would get away with it. Some gate staff are vigilant, some are not. Some will spot discrepancies, some won't.
