I'm torn. I fully agree with you. I also think quickly calling the cops to check on them as you go do something else shouldn't be that big of a deal. Because, to my mind, police should be part of the community. Ideally, not strangers in uniform.

No, I don't think that is the case most (any?) place. :(

I'm also afraid to look at the statistics, as I fear I'll see that this is another slant in class/race standings. :(

Indeed, if you do call the cops they should be able to send someone to speak to the children to check they're OK, make sure they've not absconded or something, rather than making an incident out of it.
