I know and that’s complete crap. Freaking lawyers. These little jerk kids know you can’t do anything to them as well. I am glad I am old because when these little jrks are adults it’s going to be “Lord of the Flies”, out there. I hope everyone is happy.
Somebody above posted that the day care provider's reality restrains them from using any kind of force. Parents sue, child protective services initiates legal action to take away their license, maybe criminal sanctions depending on the local DA, may of which are nut jobs in their own right.
All of that gets settled in court, and there is a significant probability that your judge will be a nut case too - so just call the cops, and let them take the heat.
