Oh I didn't catch that common denominator... you must REALLY be an un-showered engineer after all...
I‘d thought I was artistic in school because I’d eat my crayons but it turned out I’d misunderstood the diagnosis.

There are 50,000 plus physical restraints of kids with disabilities in schools each year due to their uncontrollable outburst. I am asking what the school is supposed to do when a child is in a fit of violence and destruction if physical restraint is not to be an option.
Some people had no issues with handcuffing an 8 year old who was SITTING IN A CHAIR crying. Guess they should have built that kid a jail cell so when he throws his fit they can throw him in the time out cell.

It sounds like you would rather have had the deputy pull his gun or sit on the kid.
Some autistic people are pretty darn strong, and when they become agitated, it can take more than one person to restrain them. This school might not have had the manpower. I am not saying this is right, but let's think of the safety of the other children while this child is having a meltdown.
I'm trying to understand what their options are if physical restraint isn't the answer.
In this case, this 8 year old girl has already thrown punches at more than one adult and trashed two classrooms before finally being restrained...

In the case of the 8 year old boy you were posting about he was restrained in handcuffs for 15 minutes after attempting to punch the cop. The cuffs were taken off after the boy settled down.
