Oh and "unregistered".... Daycare knows I am not being unsupportive of her.
She KNOWS I support and love her but she also knows I will share my perspective with her even when I don't agree with her and it doesn't affect our friendship as that's what friends are for.... I support her but it doesn't mean I will always agree 100%.
Daycare~ I understand where you are coming from as well. I didn't comment earlier because I see your point. My only concern was what "could" potentially happen as fall out IF the family gets upset or feels you over stepped. kwim?
I think they could try and say you were coercing the child into saying more or embellishing and that could be trouble for you.
I agree that it was a good thing to talk to the family.... and you know them best so you are the only one who really knows the right/wrong way to approach them about a touchy subject.
I think you can be a supportive and safe person for the DCG but the subject shouldn't be discussed amongst the two of you anymore once you brought it up to the parents. I suppose if the child wants to talk more about it, you can listen to her but I don't think you should make promises or say things will change for her etc type things because you really can't guarantee that.
I just want you to protect your own butt because you know as well as I do that they are only golden until something doesn't go their way and this whole situation has the makings of a good situation that could potentially go bad fast.

I just learned that last week... I am so ghetto... jkYOu keep it real and yes you are right, if things do fall back I could be in a worse issue. I have done as everyone mentioned and have been documenting everything.
I don't want to learn any more lessons the hard way...
