I think the question is the following>>>
The 10 year old was 4'6" and weighted a ***ping 65 lbs...
The Mother called the Police because she was throwing a temper tandrum and would not go to bed..
First Question is why is the mother even calling the police...just for god sake be a parent..
Second Question
When the officer arrived and saw the situation why would he even get involved. This was a parental issue. The parent needed to act like a parent
Third Question
It is hard to understand why a police officer could not defend his family jewels from a 65 lb little girl and had to resort to using a tazer.
Fourth Question
Why didn't he just take off his belt,hand it to the mother and say simply...Be a Parent for godsake..take control of your child and household.
Fifth Question
Why would the officer take instructions from a mother who was apparently at her wits in and had lost total parental control, if she ever had it in her entire existence with the child. When a officer hears a mother say taze my child, the first thing that should come to mind of the officer is...I am in control here, and I need not be taken instructions from this mother.
Question Six
Why didn't the officer simply get into his patrol car and leave. Make a report that says, parent cannot control child with household. Parent has very weak parenting skills, needs counseling in how to be a parent and establish rules, guidelines and perimeters in which this child must exhibit in order to keep from getting a whipping daily.
Whew! Where in the H did this guy get the impression he could be a police officer and most of all where in the dickens did the police screening officers get the impression this weakling of a man could be a officer. I can hear his fellow officers screaming for back up...Officer need assistance...Officer request...What? What? you are sending who? Never Mind, I can fight it out myself.
Yet these officers that post on this board DEFENDED these actions. What does that say about them?
It says they're more in touch with reality, an understanding of today's tactics and tools that trader's 40 plus year old reminiscences of how things were back when the cop was the guy in town who couldn't get a job doing anything else, and your biased hatred of cops.
