This has recently come up even though I have coached my children to never give a statement to school staff or to a police or school resource officer. They are supposed to just repeat over and over to ask them to call a parent that they cannot make a statement without a parent or lawyer present. But the other day my son was intimidated or they were friendly enough that he gave a statement. It did not harm him per se, but could cause harm to his friend.
What I'm wondering is if I can make a blanket statement and have it put in their files that they are not to be asked any questions concerning any incidents without their parent or lawyer present and would they be forced to abide by that or if we just continue to coach our kids more to prevent this from happening in the future. Any ideas would be appreciated.
