Abstract | If the abuse of a child were at the hands of a schoolyard bully or lurking pedophile, parents most likely would applaud intervention. However, precisely because most cases involve an abusive parent, intervention is almost automatically deemed a dicey proposition. The law, however, now requires teachers to report cases of suspected child abuse or neglect. This article offers three simple decision graphics that clarify when a teacher's intervention is appropriate and necessary. Teachers and administrators can use these three charts to identify incidences of possible child abuse and neglect among their students without fear of retribution. At a glance, educators can determine what action is appropriate based on the symptoms they observe. Educators will find the charts, if used correctly, to be useful tools for fulfilling their legal obligations under state and local laws for mandated reporters, under which all cases of suspected child abuse and neglect must be reported to the local governmental child protection agency.
