Please report it. I urge abused children to tell and keep telling until someone listens. I told the children they should tell a teacher right away. This little girl was talking from experience. She had been repeatedly sexually abused by her father since the third grade and nobody listened . . .
Teachers are busy.
School principals' schedules are overloaded. Even the most cursory investigations are not made. I encourage every child to speak with a trusted adult about abuse. If they do not have someone that will listen or they can trust, please call the Boys Town National Hotline. Our highly trained telephone counselors will listen and do something to help.
