    in philly a 4 or 5 year old girl was handcuffed and removed from school because she had a large pair of scissors in her backpack to work on a project...this was a good child who didn't get in trouble (iirc)...the police later made a very public apology to the family...

    this child (the one in the article) had a prolonged, destructive, violent outburst...for fear of legal action for physically holding the child back a restraining device was used...bottom line...the kid was out of control, attempting to hurt people, and absolutely had to be restrained...why the police had to do it and not her parents is a question i can't answer
