I had to have a conversation with a parent once like this.I explained that my intentions were sincere and of concern. I approached it like this........if you child was showing a 1% chance of having cancer wouldn't you bring him to a doctor????? Parents often overlook warning signs as they don't spend a lot of time with other kids of the same age.
Think of it this way. IF there is something going on and you say nothing and then they ask you "why didn't you say anything" when this child could have gotten help so much sooner and could of made such a difference. I just wanted to protect my behind as well. Now I can sleep at night knowing that I was a voice for this child and I fought for him :-)
It was tough but mom was amazing and understanding and grateful :-)
