I’ll work with a challenging teen. The girls weren’t even the problem. Parents who care so little they let things get this far and then bring their kid to me with a “Here, YOU fix her” attitude as if the kid is the problem. Then they threaten to sue when you report abuse.

Seems a possible solution would be mandated reporting for everyone (e.g. teachers, etc...), with a loophole exception for therapists (and pastors/priests?), with explicit legal immunity for them to report if they do? And mandated reporting if the abuser is a coworker.

e.g. therapists would be strongly encouraged to report, but can decide case-by-case if it'd do more harm to their patient than good, and if they do report, they get legal immunity for breaching (that part of) client-patient confidentiality.
