And I dont see why parents would be any less apt to report this 20-30 years ago either, if any concerned parent thinks little johnnys innocence has been tainted, they'd report it in 1980 or today just the same IMO.
I just dont believe that everything has always went on just like today and we just hear about more because its the information age... social mores change, things that were once quite taboo are no longer considered as bad, etc.

There's been an increase in reporting pretty much everything. People think there are more mass killings today, too, because of the change in news. Hell, just from the standpoint of male teachers and their students, you can see it.
