6. Okay, UGRR,
I have a rhetorical question that may cause me to be a little unpopular but, here goes:

Have y'all ever been around a truly BAD child? A mean, a God-awful, tantruming, out of control little monster?

And, since I'm sure it wasn't YOUR child you knew you couldn't do that mamma-snatch up and so you just watched the little beast rage and wild all over the place. Let's suppose for one moment - forgetting that it was in Florida even - that this was the case, that the teacher couldn't put hands on the kid or lose her job and resorted to calling for help and that help, after an hour, had to resort to this for the safety of the kid and personnel.

I have seen some truly out of control kids and I saw clips of that little cutie climbing on the table, kicking and punching the adults around her, adults who'd be sued if they'd put hands on her in response. Yes, adults in charge are supposed to be mature enough (certainly professional educators are) to handle kids without resorting to the police (!!) and hand-cuffs but could this not be one bad-ass kid??
