A Babysitter’s Dilemma: To Report or Not to Report?

After enduring a babysitting session filled with fear and uncertainty, our young babysitter took the bold step of reporting the family for not disclosing the presence of an adult son in the house. Her friends, however, weren’t entirely on board with her decision. They argued that the man was harmless, and by reporting the family, she was denying the child future babysitting services. With her friends’ words echoing in her mind, she found herself questioning her actions. Was she right to report the family, or had she overreacted?
