There is a chance no one will do anything. At this point it's unlikely there is any evidence and even if there was they couldn't determine when it happened. In addition, children can be very unreliable in their memory of events.

I'm not saying he's not telling the truth, just that he's very young and memories get distorted.

Now, in our situation, FS was five when he was placed with us but the abuse had happened at age 4. He gave a statement and when biomom and her boyfriend refused to cooperate with the investigation, it was filed as substantiated and charges were filed against boyfriend. OP will probably not get that lucky as biomom will probably deny any wrongdoing and without evidence it will be his word against hers ......BUT.... OP will feel better knowing she reported it and it will be a papertrail to help support the justification for therapy. Plus, you never know, mom may break and confess and they could get her the help she obviously needs. Slim chance....but we can always pray!!!
