as a teacher, i can't do anything physical to the child, neither can the principal. i have no problem with the cops putting her in handcuffs to protect themselves and the child from hitting others. i know a 5 year old could not hurt a grown-up, but after being hit, the grown-ups could have reacted in a negative way and possibly hurt the child. kids know that teachers and principals can't do anything to them. it's up to the parents to teach the children respect and self-control. a teacher can only do so much. the teacher did a DAMN GOOD job at attempting to calm the child down. kudos to her and kudos to the police for having the guts to do this to the girl. i hope the officers and school district don't get sued over this, they don't deserve that. the parent deserves some type of punishment for not teaching/controlling their child.
