it's a long story. I'm trying to send a parent something they should know about their child without losing trust. Could you please tell me?

I figured I could do that, but is there another way I can do this?

That's the easiest way that I can think of. There are harder ways with scripting knowledge and so forth, but the free account is the easiest.

Or set up an account in Mail, with a user name of say "Mr Someone" with an email address of "[email protected]".

Send using that account. Unless your parents are paricularly switched on I don't think they'll check the internet header......

Yeah that's pretty easy to figure out.. unless like you said they are not very internet savvy. I would go with the whole phone call thing myself :)
