I've got a 5-year-old, and having seen the video and read this I think Mooseman has it just right.

My children get spankings when they get out of line, and personally if I had the power when my daughter starts school in the fall I would give her teacher the right to do the same. This entire episode stems from a complete lack of respect for anything, she knows the teachers can't do anything and I think it's dispicable that her mother's reaction is to get a lawyer!

Personally if my children were ever to throw a tantrum like that, especially in school where the poor teachers aren't paid enough as it is, I would welcome the police putting them in handcuffs in the hopes that it would make the point that the behavior is completely inexcusable. Then I would have a hard time apologizing enough to those poor educators for my children having subjected them to such a disruptive, disrespectful, and unnecessary outburst.

I think her and her mother need to grow the hell up before we make another situation where we tell everybody else that this type of behavior is acceptable and it's the cops that are at fault and not this 5-year-old.
