  Case: Oh the politics
Working in my church as a teacher was a dream come true. I love my church and enjoyed the people who go there. Our school got a new director. I had suspension of physical abuse to a child in my classroom so I brought it her attention. She told me to keep documentation on the situation and take pictures. I did. Then as things continued the mother came to me and told me her husband was hot tempter. I brought this to the directors attention. She told me that the parents went to the church and were very involved and I was wrong. She told me if I pursue it I would end up fired...
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
keep documenting the abuse and report it to DCFS or an abuse hotline. Also report the director for negligence.

Comments: I agree with this situation because it documents both the child and gets the child the help needed; it also reports the director who is obviously not being ethical and doing their job.

Comments: This answer highlights the fact that it is important for us not only to report such abuse but to report those who willfully ignore abuse. The life of a child is too important to let something as petty as church involvement get in the way!

Comments: I absolutely agree. The director needs to be held responsible for neglect if she is aware of an issue and is turning a blind eye because the parents are "good church goers." Regardless of religion, abuse is abuse.
