But Tim's therapist says handcuffing an 11-year-old and putting him in a cell over something like this is “quite an overreaction” and does much more harm than good.

“Overreaction”?? How Orwellian! Now isn't that cute P.C.? What clever New Speak!

CALL IT WHAT IT IS! CRUEL ABUSE!

CALL IT WHAT IT IS! CRUEL ABUSE!

Let's review. 11 year old boy gets dubious ADD diagnosis. Probably getting mind-altering drugs. Visiting "therapist" who gets $$$ for treating ADD. Now, he does what he's told and is thrown in JAIL. This kid is being abused on his BEST days, IMHO.

If I had kids, I'd rather they work in an adult bookstore than ever set foot in any school.
