Message to another parent about an online incident

Non-accusatory message to a parent of another child involved in an online incident with your own child.

เมื่อใดควรใช้Use when you know the other parent and the incident is at a level where a direct, calm conversation can help — not where police, school, or platform reporting is more appropriate.

คำแนะนำเรื่องน้ำเสียง

  • Open in good faith. Assume the other parent does not yet know.
  • Keep it short. Detail can come in a phone call.
  • Avoid labels ("bully", "groomer", "perpetrator") in a parent-to-parent message.
  • Offer a way to step out of text and onto a call.

Hi [OTHER PARENT'S NAME],

I hope you don't mind me getting in touch. I wanted to flag something between [YOUR CHILD'S FIRST NAME] and [THEIR CHILD'S FIRST NAME] that has come up online, in case you weren't aware.

From what I can see: [BRIEF DESCRIPTION].

I'm not writing to make a fuss or get anyone in trouble — I just thought it was the kind of thing I'd want to know about as a parent, so I'd rather mention it than not.

What I'm hoping is that [WHAT YOU ARE HOPING FOR].

If it's easier to chat by phone, just let me know and I'll give you a ring.

Thanks,
[YOUR NAME]
