Do you have data to back your dismissal? Because when I looked, over 10,000 Pennsylvanian school employees reported suspected child abuse to the state in 2022 alone: https://www.dhs.pa.gov/docs/OCYF/Documents/2022-PA-CHILD-PROTECTIVE-SERVICES-REPORT_8-10-2023_FINAL.pdf https://www.dhs.pa.gov/docs/OCYF/Documents/2022-PA-CHILD-PRO... The number of substantiated (court ruling, protective order, etc) child abuse cases in 2022: around 5,000. No other group, including doctors, police officers, and Child Protective Services themselves, made more reports. Only around 6% of the school employees' reports were substantiated, making their reports least likely to be substantiated. This leads me to believe school employees have a lower threshold for reporting a suspicion compared to other groups.

I lived it, and I have relatives working in that system who say nothing has changed. BTW there are more than 100k school teachers in Pennsylvania. 10k reports a year represents about 1 in 10 teachers making a single report a year. I retract my 100x remark, it's far worse than that.
