Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Teachers are advised to err on the side of over-reporting when it comes to suspicions of abuse to ensure the safety and well-being of the child, even if it means there might be false alarms. This approach prioritizes the child's protection over concerns of over-reporting or infringing on family privacy.
