There's nothing wrong with a girl of 6 years being given a chance to learn a second language, and Dari or Pashto[^] are not readily available in most American schools. By the time she is pardoned, she'll probably have offers from the State Department to work for them as an interpreter. Not a bad career move for a kid with only a kindergarten education! :-D

optimistic view. That's what I like.

I haven't read it but was she carrying a gun at the time and a belt full of heroin? Don't pick on the US though. Here in the UK we have feral packs of kids roaming around estates where six-year-olds are quite normal.
A shame indeed.

damn dangerous! They have subliminal ways to get what they want. And one realizes not until too late.

subliminal, not a lot of them I know.

Police handcuff 6-year-old girl in Georgia[^] I hope she'll do fine in Guantanamo. With a little luck she will be back before turning 21.

"They don't have no business calling the police and handcuffing my child," said Salecia's father, Earnest Johnson.
Is it just me or is there something amiss in this sentence...
The child was also observed "biting the doorknob of the office and jumping on the paper shredder."
Rabbies?

I don't want my kids to go to a school where the teachers are not able to handle them. No need to get 'brutal', I assume a teacher is able to handle such a situation. But it's the 69' generation that is now teaching our kids. All needs to be discuss - no solution without everyone to agree.

The girl was released to Ruff after numerous attempts to reach her parents failed, the police report said. Swicord said his department still has not heard from the girl's mother or father. But the parents have spoken to reporters. This should give you an idea as to the type of home life she has.

You don't have kids I assume. The only 'force' one needs to get a hold on those 6yo is the voice and authority.

No, not exactly. My 'children' used to call me sarge and on a few occasions I got to see what extreme anger or fear can do. Restraining them is not intended as punishment. It's to protect them from doing something they would regret when their brains start working again. That exceptional state of mind does not last long, probably because they have gotten a family size dose of adrenaline which wears off very quickly. But during that time they feel little pain and the body mobilizes all reserves. Even a child will show surprising strength in such a situation. Did you ever see a dumb movie in which somebody steps in front of a panicked crowd, commands them to stop and gets himself run over? That's exactly what your voice and authority will get you then. Scared people will just ignore you or the furious ones will get a target. This is the most extreme reaction reserved for situations of mortal danger, percieved or real. I really hope that you don't have experienced that with your children.
