It’s definitely a tough situation and not an easy one to answer, especially when children are involved. The one thing you will ask yourself is what is the priority here. The first thing is safety. Is the child safe? Based on what your daughter shared, it doesn’t sound like it. Your job is not to investigate, so, yes, you can notify child protective services. Even though you are not considered a mandate reporter, you can still report what your daughter shared. Once it is reported, it's up to CPS to take the report and follow up. When they follow up, they do not share with the parents who made the report in order to keep the anonymity of the situation. It was very brave of your daughter to share about her friend to her.
