Thinking more about this, I mean, if a kid told me something like this, I sure as hell wouldn't want to have to deal with it. And I'm very ethical, and have done shit pretty regularly like jump in pools to save a kid, yoink an attacking dog off a smaller one, etc. So I'm likely among the more-likely to respond types. Yet still if a kid told me this, I'd be terrified to act, and beyond that terror, I'd simply have no idea what to do. Call the cops and report? But then I'd worry I'd be getting the kid killed...

Anyone know what we actually do if someone does tell us about serious, needs-intervention crime?
