IC, here the line to report child abuse claims that you can report totally anonymously with no repercussions and it is run by DHS (our child protection agency) but they dispatch via the 911 dispatchers and not only do they pressure you to give personal info and log your phone number and call that number over and over and over, they also send cops to you and even threaten you with prosecution for not givng your name or being willing to testify if called - and they push HARD. This is NOT what I have been told, all I have been told is that it is anonymous, there is no pressure for your info, blah blah blah. I have EXPERIENCED all of this and it really soured me and makes me wonder how people can call if they are afraid oft he parents. If a parent will beat their own child, what would keep them from going after anyone else, Know what I mean????
