Would you tell the parents?

[Crayola kiddies]

Yes I would tell the parents ..... I would explain to the child that you understand that it was an accident and he's not in trouble but you have to let his mom know. Sometimes these accudents are precursors to bigger problems and the parent needs to know this. I would never tell a child that wouldn't inform his parent because it's my responsibility. Also if the parent finds out that you didn't say anything they will wonder what else you haven't told them ..... Honesty is very important. I would never want to give a parent any reason not to trust me.
