i mean, maybe this is my inner “survivor of child abuse” talking, but I am not going to tell abusive parents that they’re bad at bringing up their children without a bullet proof plan with regards to how I could protect my student from the emotional and physical backlash of that meeting.

Important thing to remember about intervening in abuse in general. Any actions taken by others to hold the abuser accountable WILL be taken out on the victim and not the person doing the confronting. Do not confront an abuser about their actions unless you know for absolute certain that you can protect their victim from the fallout.

AN ABBREVIATED GUIDE TO ‘holy shit my friend is in an abusive relationship what do I do’

You don’t need to have that meeting, as a teacher, but you do have to report if you know or suspect a child under your care is being abused. It’s called mandated reporting and is the law for anyone who works in a field like teaching or medicine. It’s not your responsibility to have the plan for protection; it is your responsibility to report the abuse to the people who do make those plans.
