[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Couldn’t law enforcement have tried to deescalate for however long it took? [/quote] This is one technique that teachers who receive crisis intervention training are taught and it works. You give the distressed person time and safe choices. You remain calm. It will inconvenience you and others, but no one gets hurt. We only do restraints when there’s a clear threat to physical safety such as the kid threatening to jump out a second story window (harm to self) or the kid throwing hard objects (harm to others). Even in Feb, I had to explain to a colleague why we can’t “take down” the 12 year old boy who threw papers from her desk around the classroom. [/quote]
