Every kid needs to know how to bunt, because you never know when you are going to come up in a situation when you need it. If you only bunt "when the situation calls for it" not only is the defense ready but your team may not always be able to execute it. I've seen plenty of 12U and 14U kids come up when they needed to get a bunt down and couldn't.
Was your #4 hitter successful on the bunt? Did you score runs? Every parent wants to see their DD come up with a big hit - it's an ego booster for the parents. Nonetheless, it's not about your particular kid - it's about the team and what is best for the team in the long run.
