[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am coming with a different perspective.

I would tell them with an anonymous letter sent to them because if this parent is that ashamed, it will probably ruin your relationship with her and your child will be known as the tattletale and it could ruin not only her friendship with this but girl but her high school social life.

I disagree. This would make me paranoid as to who knows? I wouldn't be able to look anyone in the eye. I may even be angry with my kid cause "everyone else knows".

No, 10:19 is right. You can certainly do this in a kind and loving manner.[/quote]

I completely disagree

I don't think I could go to a person (other than 2 very close friends that I have)  and say to their face "your daughter is having sex."  That is a crazy conversation to have with casual friends who seem uptight about their daughter to begin with.  You have no idea which direction it will go in, if they will believe you, if your own child gets ousted from a social group in school because of it.  If you become labeled the "nosy or gossipy" mom and other parents veer away.  And honestly unless you literally saw them having sex or one of them told you in sincerity that they did, then you are not 100% sure.  Are you really going to just go and say this?

My concern is not with if the mom will be paranoid by not knowing who told her.  It is getting her attention without putting my family in harms way with too much attention.  Just a quick note to say "[i]I am concerned your daughter MAY be sexually active and for her safety and well being, I wanted you to know.  This information is not being spread (as far as I know) and it may not be 100% true but the information I received was enough that I wanted to let you know.  [/i]

The End.  You did your part.  [/quote]
