There have been a few news stories recently, where elementary school aged kids, have been arrested.
Are there discipline problems beyond the ability of the principal and parents to handle,? Even so, at such young ages do we really need the police?
Zero-tolerance, zero-intelligence one-size-fits-all discipline.
People asked for police in their schools. What did they think police do? They are not our friends, social workers, psychiatrists, therapists, or guidance counselors. They are simplistic by design law enforcement officers. What part of “enforce” remains a puzzle to everyone?

Well, in the olden days (my growing-up era), the Principal or my parents would have handled and solved things.
But today, parents are abusers, and the principal is dictated by the state-level ‘education code rules’.

no one is permitted to touch children, so the only people who can touch an out of control child are the people who are legally permitted to, trained workers and police.
Is this just a kick, or is this a mentally ill and or behaviaorlly dysregulated child who was out of control, weighed more than her peers and stomped them.
If the child is too unruly the only way to stop the behavior might be to use physical restraint. Then the lawsuits begin. Since grandma is quoted in this story, I wonder if the kid has much interaction with her parents.
