Many children are abused in connection with toilet training, incontinence, meal battles or sleep problems. However, note that inappropriate reports take away resources needed for real abuse cases and hurt families who are unjustly accused. Report to Law Enforcement if abuse is more serious or if other people are involved.
All states grant immunity from civil and criminal liability to persons who report.
Liver and small bowel injury are most common. Bring siblings in to be examined. Record of the suspected abuse to ER, clinics, etc. Follow up calls between each other. Recommended Reference Besharov, Douglas.
