Values-schmalues Caroline, this is a potential "legality" issue, but I'll hold off, like Dave, in judgement until more details are verified.

Coupla quick questions for your research:

1. Is she "officially" listed as a co-writer? Or is that quote just something that she blurted out during an interview? It's not uncommon for people to say something once, and then repeat it a few times and the next thing ya know, they actually believe it.

2. And yes, it's an ancient move by performers to take co-writing credit, and the actual writers have to split the royalties in order to get the song recorded, but that is usually done by well-established performers, not 10 year old snot-faced, droopy-drawers kids!!!, John Denver and "Take me Home, Country Roads" comes immediately to mind, but it's extremely common. So, you have to carefully consider the consequences of confronting her about this. I mean, what IF-IF-If-IF, in 5 years she's the next Taylor Swift???

As MAB(and others) say, it's all about relationships, and it's a delicate balancing act to figure out which bridge to burn.

But, whatever happens, CONGRATS!!!!
