Police Arrest, Handcuff 8-Year-Old For Tantrum
Child Charged With Disorderly Conduct, Assault, Battery

POSTED: 10:21 am CST March 4, 2005

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. -- Police arrested an 8-year-old boy who allegedly had a violent outburst in school, head-butting his teacher and kicking an assistant principal, when he was told he couldn't go outside to play with other students.

The 4-foot pupil was led away from Rawls Byrd Elementary School in handcuffs Tuesday and charged with disorderly conduct and assault and battery.

"It's not something that happens every day," Maj. Stan Stout said of what could be the department's youngest arrestee ever.

Stout said the chair-tossing, desk-turning outburst occurred after a teacher, and later the assistant principal, attempted to stop the boy from joining his classmates.

The child was later released to his parents.

This just makes me sooooooooo MAD!

I am surrounded by kids every day...... and even I can see with an untrained eye, when a child is feeling so frustrated to the point of bursting and have the tools to be able to calm a child down! Granted, I was not present, and the article doesn't explain any specifics as to what led up to the outburst or tantrum as they called it. But I would have hoped that PRIOR to the action taken (handcuffs? jail?) that the school system (teacher and asst.principal) could have somehow calmed this CHILD down.

OK.. off rant..

What am I missing?

I don’t know if the police were stationed at the school, but they had to be called at some point…………… after the teacher couldn’t squelch the situation …….after the asst. principal was brought into it………..

Since our teachers are subject to being sued if they paddle a kids ass when they are totally out of control, what else would you suggest to get his attention?

Just a layman’s thought, but it seems being allowed to carryout such actions is what made an eight year old comfortable enough to take them to school.

Perhaps a crash course in Astronomy 101 would show him that the universe doesn’t revolve around his ass, ………… and a paddle can.

You are right on that one PF... teachers are subject to being sued by parents who think their little devil is actually an angel....

I guess I am a little over sensitive about drastic steps like this.. Again, like I said before the article doesn't say if this behavior is one that the kid exhibited before or what exactly led up to it, but I wonder if there were clues to this leading up to the outburst? That was what I was questioning and why I was so mad about it. Much, not all, of the behavior of a student can be predicted by what they are experiencing and can be curtailed prior to reaching eruption stage.

Upon reflection, I know that many districts call the police as a last resort. Maybe this behavior was typical of the child? I don't know, but it makes me sad and mad that it had to happen to an 8 year old. And hopefully this child will learn a lesson....

as a future head butt recipient I wonder if the school has a DARE officer there who got involved.

If the situation could not have been prevented by a proactive (as opposed to a reactive) teacher then someone who was properly trained in restraint should have dealt with the child. Then again liability is the single greatest threat to my profession.

I consider the ratio of attention to “a DARE officer”, “properly trained in restraint”, “liability is the single greatest threat”, to TEACHING, a sin.

We only have the action and reaction that had to be taken in this report. You are right about some sad conditions had to precede these final events. Short of Damion reincarnate, eight years of adult influence didn’t happen. Our vulnerable teachers are left to deal with the result.

Regardless of the facts that paved the way, the situation stated had to be ENDED!…… NOW!…….. and with consequences!... for the sake of our valuable teachers and every other child in the school.
