When I was about 14 I had a friend whose mom caught him masturbating. She duct taped oven mitts to his hands every night before bed for a week until Sunday, when she took him to their priest. The priest told her, basically, she was crazy. Masturbation is a sin, yada yada Catholic line, but that she could not duct tape her child's hands at night, and because it was a counseling session and not a confessional, he would be required to report her if it continued.
Dude was so fucking messed up, though. Kept up with him on Facebook for a while after j moved, and he ended up doing a lot of SI and then in his mid twenties went full goth and got a shit ton of piercings and tattoos to cover the scars.
Wtf.........
Priests are technically mandatory reporters for any abuse found out about outside of the confessionals.
I should clarify:
The wtf is multifaceted.
To the 2nd and 3rd points, I think the mentality is 'bitch be crazy, but maybe she's not stupid enough to do it again'. I've heard of parents doing really fucking stupid shit with seemingly good intentions, and most of them will realize how fucking stupid they are once you metaphorically hit them with a clue by four.
The first is due to archaic rules that allow the confessional booth to be outside of the reporting under the thought that this is just supposed to be between the sinner and god('s representative). It's fucking stupid, but most of Christianity/Catholicism is in my experience.
