Hi everyone,

I just had a rather distubring conversation with a patron who was telling me that his nephews called him at 1 am last night to tell him that they were home alone and in the car of a 10 year was was left with them and a 1 year old infant.  The patron told me that there were no adults in the home at the time of the call and that the mothers of the children were unreachable.

At what point are we compelled to call CPS if we hear information like this?  I am not sure if I am required to report, if I should report, or if I should encourage my patron to report this information.
