[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only kicked someone. Gosh... that’s good to hear?

Seriously, WTF?  We now expect our teachers to put up with physical abuse from their students?  Come on.  Let the teachers teach.  This kid needs some sort of serious intervention and if her parent/guardian isn't providing it then maybe it needs to be court ordered.[/quote]

So you think a kindergartner or first grader kicking someone means they should be arrested. I find that appalling.

Once a child was bothering my DD in first grade so she bit her. I guess we should have brought back the electric chair. [/quote]

I trust that the teacher and the rest of the school staff attempted to bring the girl under control before they brought the officer in to handle the situation.

This is one of those you had to see it to believe it I'm sure.  There is probably some sort of security footage showing what the school/the officer were dealing with.

If Dulce *just* kicked a teacher, had settled down and the officer was just trying to put the fear of God into her by arresting her - that is another story entirely.[/quote]

Even if she weren’t behaving and didn’t settle down, how is arresting her the right answer? Officers are supposed to de escalate situations. How is this child helped by being sent to a juvenile detention center for having a tantrum at school? And the officer has done it twice in a week, plus he has a history of excessive force. This isn’t how we’re supposed to treat our kids. [/quote]

I don't know.  Apparently the school felt it was necessary to bring the resource officer into the situation?  I'm sure that there is more to this story. It would be great to get the big picture as to why this happened.

Was this a first time or one of many?  Did the girl calm down or was she actively defying the adults trying to settle her down?  Whatever the situation was, I hope her parent/guardian takes this very seriously and gets this little girl the help that she so desperately needs.[/quote]
