When interviewing children, you should:

Interview with the child victim as soon as possible
Wait for legal advice before interviewing
Only interview in the presence of their caregiver
Interview them along with their siblings

The correct answer is: Interview with the child victim as soon as possible

When interviewing children, it is important to do so as soon as possible in order to gather accurate and timely information. Waiting for legal advice before interviewing (option B) can cause delays in the investigation process and may result in the child's memory fading or being influenced by others. Only interviewing in the presence of their caregiver (option C) may impact the child's ability to disclose information due to possible fear or intimidation. Additionally, interviewing them along with their siblings (option D) can lead to distractions and potential pressure to conform to their siblings' responses. Thus, option A is the most effective and recommended choice for interviewing children.
