[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes I would be concerned. I am a mandated reporter myself and the rules are pretty stringent. Some people use their common sense and wisdom more than others; some might report the slightest thing. You will be fine unless you are truly abusing your child but you will be subjected to checks before they clear you. I have made it a point to try to never have my child 1:1 with mandated reporters unless necessary (like a teacher). Your DD won’t be there alone but still.

TL;DR: I am concerned about any fly on the wall situation with a mandated reporter. I’d have a talk with my kid to keep things about his parents and home life to himself and basically to never forget there is a teacher there and be on his best behavior (no dumb jokes etc). [/quote]

This is the only creepy thing I’ve read on this thread. [/quote]
The three mandates of dysfunctional families: don't feel, don't trust, don't tell.[/quote]

When I was newly married, my new SIL launched into a story about how her DD messed up and erroneously told a trusted teacher that her father was abusive towards her. They painted it as her exaggerating because she was disgruntled about discipline.

There was a general investigation but it all cleared up. They kept telling her that she needed to watch what she said or she could get the family in trouble. It was really confusing to me why they would even talk about this in front of me (I get it now.)

Fast forward more than a decade, and I hear from others that BIL was physically abusive towards niece.

I don’t physically abuse my kid but it’s quite easy to misconstrue things in this country. Saying or doing, both. It all clears up eventually but at what cost.[/quote]
