Name changed as really must be secret squirrel here.
DS is sixth form at a school with a boarding component. He came home last night and told me about this

Had never heard of it but seems to be some stupidly dangerous facebook game bit like a chain letter but if tagged you have to film yourself binge drinking!
DS told me in a "how stupid is this" kind of a way (thankfully and a little suprisingly !) but he also was talking about it because two school pupils had posted facebook videos of themselves doing this, on school premises. One in a day house and one in a boarding house. This seems to be common knowledge among his year group butobv not among the staff. He showed me one video.
I have just emailed his tutor to tell him what is going on, not naming the culprits. Firstly (and mainly) because I am concerned that someones child might end up getting hurt and secondly because it could really damage the school if it came out and they had not known or done anythng about it.
I have reiterated that DS is not involved and that it must be confidential but now I am worried I should have just ignored it, I dont want to get him or anyone else in trouble but would feel terrible if something bad happened and I had kept quiet.
Cant discuss with DH as he is too honest and should the need to deny to DS and involvemnt on my part arise, he would be hopeless and confess!
