Explanation:

I will ask the parents why don't they want their son to know about his illness. If the parents are concerned about how he'll react or even his after-math (although he is already sick).  If it about his maturity, before you tell him

you should consult with my hospital's ethic/legal counsel before you do, just to decrease personal liability.

Does it make sense?
