Inky, that's a hard decision and you did the right thing by calling. I understand it being rough on you, and I would struggle with it too. I can't figure out what's worth reporting and what isn't because of my mixed up experiences, such as that the police didn't think that it was worth doing anything when someone beat me up and broke my nose (someone at work last summer). And I can relate to that mother in the car, as I dissociate like that when my husband criticises and yells at our kids. I'm not strong enough yet to stop him, but I'm reacting more visibly and he's able to see that it hurts me, although he still tells me the kids understand it. Anyway, I'm sorry you are having a rough time, and I hope that things change for the better, for the family you saw as well as for you.
