Child Abuse Reports
Women's Day magazine contained
the following. "In 1990, 2.5 million cases of child abuse were reported,
an increase of almost 400 percent since 1976. Rising even faster are
false accusations. In 1976 only 35 percent of cases were found to be
unsubstantiated: today that number is up to 65 percent. One result is
there are now 3,000 chapters of Victims of Child Abuse Laws (VOCAL)
across the country."
