I'm learning more and more that whenever you're in doubt on a situation....ask. When I'm not clear on a decision to be made is the time when I don't need to be making the decision on my own.

Case in point, I was ready today to have a conversation with a parent that could have done some damage. I wasn't 100% on the situation so I called a veteran youth pastor friend and asked his thoughts. He basically told me the exact opposite of what I was thinking and I knew in my gut he was right. Outside eyes are almost always extremely helpful to the situation.

Now, there comes a point where you have to make the final decision. But before it gets to that point, it makes sense to get all the counsel and feedback you can.
