Afghan woman stoned to death for adultery

Yes Stone Age .. this is plain sick ... it makes me physically sick ..really ..this world we are living in is SICK

I totally agree with you here ... come on a 5 years old little girl even heavily disturbed should be controled by the shcool not by the police

if they were to have used force against the little 5 year old girl then the parent's would have sued and inevitably won.
I think the school did the right thing, now probably a therapist is helping the little girl and talking to her parents about how to make things better for the girl.
Yes a school should be able to control a 5 year old girl but what could they do in this case??? ground her, hit her, take away her lunch??

what is SICK is that shcool didn't move and PREFERED to call the police because they feared to be sued and the police to handcuffing the 5 years old kid is sick as well .. this sueing (*EVERYONE FOR WHATVER REASON*) crazyness is SICK

I agree, but it doesn't change the fact that it happens, and instead of it being thought of as the last result for a problem, it's the first thing that comes to mind for most people, specially upper middle class americans.
It's a twisted and sick world we're living in surrounded by chaos and sin.(thats my lyric)

When a kid is totally out of control and not listening to reason, sometimes it is hard to know exactly what to do. The principal sat back helplessly while this child was running around the office, ripping things off of the walls and kicking and hitting her. Maybe handcuffing her was a bit extreme, but you have to realize that the adult in this situation can't even put their hands on the kid to restrain him/her. What would you have done? Please tell me how you would have handled the situation? Calling the cops was probably the most logical option so as not to risk getting sued herself. The cops can't put their hands on her either, so maybe in their head this was the most logical way of staying out of trouble.

Not that I totally agree with that method mind you, but I wasn't there so it is hard to judge just by watching a tape. Plus, nobody knows what kind of violent history this kid has that led up to this.

Don't laugh at the fact that she was only five. When you have one running rampant and out of control around you, then we shall see who has the last laugh. :P

Also, what baffles me is the fact that you are more outraged by this kid being handcuffed rather than her behavior. Since when is kicking and hitting teachers acceptable? It is quite scary if you ask me. Especially being a teacher myself.

Nothing prepares you for situations like this. Especially in a society where you have to worry about every move you make, because it will lead to you being sued.

She wasn't really acting like your typical 5 year old was she?
