A nurse is considering reporting suspected abuse by a step-father, but she is worried that she might jeopardize a developing relationship with the child's mother. What legal ramifications should she consider?
1. If she does not report her suspicions, she could lose her license.
2. If she makes a report, the step-father could sue her for false arrest.
3. If she makes the report, the mother could accuse her of alienation of affection.
4. If she does not make a report, her agency could be liable for any medical expenses.
