I don't know what the laws are -- could you check with your T or someone else if your checking up on her (E.g. calling social services etc) could be done discreetly? Or, would that necessarily entail some sort of action on their part?

Mostly because while the kid's safety is crucial, I'd also worry a bit about what'll happen to the kid if social services visits and then determines all's well but the kid's caregivers end up punishing the kid somehow for it?

Sorry, not to make your conundrum more complicated.
Thanks for this!
