At first this story irritated me but after thinking about it for a minute, I decided it was rather amusing.
"A 5-year-old girl was handcuffed by police after she tore papers off a bulletin board and punched an assistant principal in kindergarten class, according to a video released by a lawyer for the child's mother..."
Were they scared she was going to hit them next? She's 5! A little, tiny 5 year old girl just made fully grown policemen look like a bunch of pansies. Tell me that's not funny.

The children, about 32, listen to her and love her. She really is a special teacher.
