i REALLY need proof for the statement that most abusive parents are caught, because right now it's pretty much exactly the same situation as with rape: most people end up not reporting it at all.
and there really needs to be more of a push to hold stuffty parents that are still within the law responsible for the stuff they do. think like emotionally treating them like stuff or just outright being ignorant of their issues (unless they're too severe physically to ignore)
it's not unheard of in america for kids to be bullied and nothing to do be done about it, whether because their parents don't actually care or because of previous negative experiences with their parents causing them to keep it a secret and having the issue continue to get worse to likely the point of no return. or even just making the issue worse, let's use the example of cyber bullying where the parents solution is to take away the internet. congrats you not only got rid of one issue but you created 2 others.
UK i heard wasn't much different in this regard. and since schools aren't doing jack stuff to starfish children without parent intervention this creates an issue that just gets worse and worse.
you can be a really stuffty parent without breaking the law.
phantos' original point is pretty stuffty but that doesn't mean nothing can be done. there are better solutions in better places, educational system being by far the biggest place to resolve a lot of really stuffty issues. too bad nobody believes in long term solutions otherwise we wouldn't be in this mess right now.
aka resolve situations by actually fixing the problem before it gets a chance to be a real big one
