Hi all 
I have a heap of scenarios that i have to answer about privacy and what should the carer do...
When You are asking a parent/ carer a private question, how exactly would you word it so that it doesn't sound like u are accusing them of something??
E.g. The carer has heard rumors that Tyler's mother, Libby spends most days at the club drinking and gambling. there have been days when the carer thought Libby looked a little unsteady and smelled of alcohol.
Would this be a situation where you would contact child protection?
Am slightly confused on what is a privacy issue and what isn't.
Any help is appreciated
Thx
