DS (16) has a solid group of friends. Known each other for ages, look out for each other, socialise a lot as a group.
They all talk to each other about everything and try to support each other with any problems.
He told me that one of them has been harming himself. He only told me because another parent found out and told me, and he filled in the details. This was not the parent of the boy involved. I do not know his family at all.
However, I work in the school the boy goes to. Under our safeguarding guidance, I raised it with the HT.
He was spoken to by her today, DS asked if I had said anything and I said I had. He was not happy at all and said he would not tell me anything in future. I explained why and said I was concerned.
Did I do the right thing? Will this ruin any trust in future?
Please be gentle, this was really upsetting for everyone involved.

AIBU?
Was I right? DS doesn't think so.
