Over three million cases of child abuse and neglect are investigated in the United States annually. The United States Department of Health and Human Services asserts that
 
  a. these numbers are most probably an accurate reflection of actual number of incidents (within 5 percentage points).

  c. these numbers are serious underestimates with the actual numbers perhaps triple the number of reports.
  d. we really have no idea because legal definitions vary so much from state to state.
