Especially of children, to inform an authority figure of one's bad behavior. I can't believe you tattled on me like that to mom and dad—I'm never telling you anything ever again! I know you think you're trying to do the right thing, but you're going to have a hard time making friends if you tattle on your classmates for every little thing they do wrong.
