You notice that Sanchia, one of your third graders, frequently comes to school disheveled with bruises on her arms. When you ask her what caused the bruises, she says that she got them rough-housing with her older brothers. Suspecting child abuse, you report what you've seen to school authorities. After an investigation, it turns out that Sanchia has told the truth, and the bruises were indeed the result of rough-housing. Furious over the allegation of child abuse, Sanchia's mother, a single parent, files a lawsuit against you and the school. Of the following, which is the most accurate assessment of your situation?
◦ You are not protected from liability, since you mistakenly alleged that the parents abused Sanchia.
◦ You are not protected from liability, since the only evidence of child abuse was Sanchia's disheveled appearance and bruises on her arms.
◦ Because of the seriousness of child abuse, teachers are protected from liability in all allegations of child abuse, so you are protected from liability.
◦ You are protected from liability since you honestly reported the allegation based on her disheveled appearance and bruises.
