Hello,
This is a very 'sticky' situation. It really depends on how severe the 'hitting' behavior is. Are there marks/bruises left or is the hitting 'legal' meaning being hit with an open hand and not with an object. If its a situation that you feel the minor is at risk for serious injury you can file a CPS /DCF report anonymously to protect your identity, however your identity can become known if the situation lands in a court case. It seems like you and your daughter have a nice relationship and open communication, your daughter could encourage her friend to tell a trusting adult at school for increased opportunity to investigate. If you feel that its best to say something be mindful of what that can do to the relationship with the parents and even so the relationship with your daughter and her friend, but I do condone safety over anything, even if it means some consequences. I hope this was helpful and things get better.
