i don't think you can steer a child wrong giving them choice in a situation like this. I think most importantly the child needs to know that they can talk to the parent, with parents giving them honest answers.
of course I have no children yet (although someday I'd like too), and I'm basing most of my opinion on how I was raised, the flaws I saw and what I think might be best way to improve upon them......
