>>Sorry, it doesn't hold water. Call 911

Good grief. SRG, you seem to imagine that the child goes to the parent immediately after whatever happened, and tells them right out. I know one victim of childhood abuse who STILL hasn't told his family, because the knowledge would explode the family unit - and he's in his 40s. When he was younger he knew that the abuser would contradict him and he would not be believed. There are lots of complicating factors.
It often takes years, even decades, before the victim tells the parent. Or sometimes the child tries to tell the parent but doesn't have the vocabulary for it (they may even be too young to speak - two or three years old), or sometimes the parent does not believe the child at first. Often the child is too ashamed or embarrassed, or has been threatened or manipulated by the abuser.
There are all sorts of reasons why the authorities are not immediately contacted, you should surely know this? Have you not heard any reports about the Savile case?!
You say you picked up 'the vocabulary' from your social worker parent, but you don't seem to have picked up much detailed understanding.
I'm sorry, but I'm very angry that you choose to express disbelief towards the victims' claims because they didn't dial 911 the moment anything happened.
That is not how it works.
Please people, use your imaginations or do some research into patterns of abuse and how victims come to deal with them.
