Your Question?
Hi I am looking for some further information on the following senario question Adin (5 years) has just hit Ethan (3 years) his younger brother. When staff approached, Adin said that Ethan was “naughty” and it is his job to make sure Ethan behaves himself
• What would you do?
• Who could you seek advice and support from?
• How can you protect Ethan and still respect Adin’s family beliefs?
• Should this matter be reported? If so to whom and why?
What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
My answer so far is :- I would first make sure that Ethan was not hurt and then remove him away to a safer area, I would report what had occurred and then advise my supervisor. I would ask other employees in privacy if they have been involved in a similar situation and what they have done, advise is always a great support. I would definitely report this matter as Adin may not just hit his brother Ethan whilst he is in care, he may hurt other children that he thinks are being “naughty” as well.
* I am not sure if I am answering the question properly, I seem to be missing respecting Adins family beliefs ?
