Anyone who thinks that a 6-year old Autistic child should be prosecuted for this is a complete and utter idiot. Any prosecutor who would bring this to trial needs to find himself sitting on a street corner selling pencils or worse.
The “teacher” should lose her license to teach for trying to bring such charges in the first place.
But, that would only happen in a sane world.

The child won’t be prosecuted. Teachers are still citizens, if they are attacked, they still have the same rights you do. Of course, they do so at some risk to their careers. But to say that someone should lose their license is cruel. It sounds like the adult understands her rights as a citizen and is willing to go against a politically correct school system and file charges. I am sure she will be on the adminstrators shit list, don’t you worry about that. They won’t prosecute, but at least the lady made a statement that she doesn’t want to put up with being physcially attacked. The parents should assume some responsiblity for their child’s violent behavior. Why is it that everyone but the parents must assume liability?
