A 14-year-old girl attends a Perth general practice alone and asks for emergency contraception after a condom broke last night. She tells you she has been seeing a 25-year-old man she met online for four months, that they have sex at his flat, and that her parents know nothing about him. She says the relationship is her own choice and asks you to keep everything she has said private. She is otherwise well and has no injuries. Which one of the following must you do in response to what she has told you?
