I think your daughter did the right thing. I've been volunteering with children since I was 13, and I've been working with little ones for the past 7 years. It's harder when you are young to be taken seriously. Your daughter spends a lot of time with these children. They know her and feel comfortable with her. The way she asked the child about the bruises is exactly what I would have done. 4 year olds are brutally honest. They also have a short attention span, so changing the subject immediately was good for the child. You don't want to make a big deal about it at the moment. your daughter needed to know if it was another child who hit him. It is her job to keep the child safe while he is there at the camp.

My question would be, who spoke to the parent and how did they approach them? Did hey start off by accusing them? That might have been where thugs went wrong.
