[quote=Anonymous]The problem is that school personnel are not allowed to physically restrain a child without opening themselves up to lawsuits. While I think the reaction was over the top on one hand, on the other hand, what were they supposed to do? The child was out of control and could have hurt herself and others. I was in a similar situation (at a summer camp, not a school) and called 911. I'm sure many people would think we were being ridiculous, but we simply weren't equipped to handle the situation, and the parents were too far away to do anything. It wasn't to be punitive-- I was afraid for the child's safety. [/quote]
