I don't think you did anything wrong. You simply answered a question. If your friend didn't want you to tell her parents about the teacher meeting thing, then she should have told you not to tell them. That simple. It's not your fault. However, for the sake of a friendship, apologize anyway. Yes, I KNOW you didn't intentionally get her grounded or even really do anything "wrong." Still, if you want her as a friend, you'll have to apologize. Just suck in your gut and say "I'm sorry." I know you feel really bad about it, but trust me, it's nothing you did on purpose. The fault is her own. She had it coming by not being honest with her parents. I think you'll probably feel better if you apologize, and try to reconcile the friendship.

It wasn't your fault, don't worry!
Here's what to do:
- Write a note (coloured with little pretty drawings!) to your friend saying how sorry you are and how you didn't mean to get her in trouble
- If you want to, you can buy her some chocolates or something like a teddy but I doubt you need to go that far.

Good luck!

No you didn't do anything wrong. You simply didn't know that her parents didn't know. THAT'S NOT YOUR FAULT. You, being polite, answered truthfully to her parents' question. Really..it's HER fault for not telling her parents. Because if she had just told her parents in the first place, then she wouldn't have gotten grounded. Agree? Well yes..you didn't do anything wrong, and don't be too hard on yourself. A simple "sorry" would be just fine just to make up for it. I really don't think any other "making up" for it would be necessary since you didn't do anything wrong.

You didnt do anything wrong,she did by not telling her parents about it. Yah you will feel like crap but then again she never told you she didnt tell her parents. Also if you lied then her parents would not trust you. Tell her your sorry you didnt mean to get her in trouble and if she is a true friend she will understand.

If she didn't tell you not to mention it I don't think she can be mad at you for long. I mean you didn't know she hadn't said anything to them about it.

I know you feel bad but, it isn't anything you did to deliberately get her in trouble. There is nothing you can do to make up for it. You did nothing wrong. Just answered a question you were asked. :)
