True. Mandatory reporters, such as teachers and healthcare professionals, are required by law to report suspected cases of abuse and neglect to the appropriate authorities.

Yes, a parent can potentially sue someone for reporting abuse if the report is found to be false and made with malicious intent, which could be considered defamation or slander. However, many jurisdictions have laws that protect individuals who report suspected abuse in good faith, known as "mandatory reporting" laws. These laws aim to encourage the reporting of abuse without fear of legal repercussions, provided the report was made without malice. It's essential to understand local laws and consult legal advice if unsure about the implications of reporting.
You report it to your local cider mill.Where do you think you report it!?!
By reporting it to the agency in charge of child services in your state of residence or law enforcement depending on the law where you reside. This is not something that should be done lightly.
