And mom has the nerve to chalk up the little girl's behavior to, "She has mood swings some days, which all of us had mood swings some days," Johnson's mother Constance Ruff told WMAZ. "I guess that was just one of her bad days." WTF!!!!
The mom and dad of this child should pay for the damage to the property and for the medical expenses of the children and the principal assaulted. They also need to stop publicly trying to get sympathy and instead take this raving brat to the back room and tear her ass up!
My son was recently assaulted on the bus by an 8-year old and the school has yet to figure out how to handle this hoodlum. So you can preach your liberal belief on child rearing elsewhere.
Spanking is not child abuse and doesn't damage a child. There is a HUGE difference between discipline and abuse and I'm beyond pissed at seeing kids throwing tantrums in restaurants, being knocked into by some brat running around senseless in a store while I'm trying to shop, and hearing elementary-aged children talking like they think they are grown! Just because you are okay with your child being a brat doesn't mean the rest of us should be forced to suffer with your lack of parenting.
Police in Georgia arrested a 6-year-old girl for a temper tantrum. Ask the school to stop using police on elementary students. 
KATIE -
Salecia Johnson is six years old. On April 13, her teachers say she had a temper tantrum in class -- but instead of putting her in time-out, the school called the police.
Salecia was handcuffed, charged with battery, and kept in police custody for an hour before her parents found out what was going on. Though all charges have been dropped, Salecia -- a 6-year-old -- now has an arrest record.
Salecia's mom, Constance, says that "Salecia has been traumatized by this experience. She's afraid to return to school and recently woke up in the middle of the night saying 'they are coming to get me.'" Constance wants to make sure that this incident won't affect Salecia's future, and she wants answers about why police officers were involved in the first place.
Constance believes that what happened to Salecia is part of a larger problem. Schools across America are adopting "zero-tolerance" policies that are making police involvement in school disciplinary matters more and more common, according to the Advancement Project, a group working with Constance's family.
If thousands of people sign Constance's petition, the police and the officials at Creekside Elementary will see that they can't arrest and handcuff a six-year-old girl without facing public consequences. Schools around the country will take notice -- and Constance hopes there won't be another child that faces what Salecia did.
