My son isn't 6 yet, but when he is, if he starts hitting and kicking teachers and staff I won't be upset if they put him in the cop car.
On some level I can understand this sentiment. However, as a parent with kids who are/have been through all levels of K-12 education, I would advise you not to take what the school says about your kid’s disciplinary issues at face value 100% of the time. Especially if said issues leads to them calling an LEO.

Now, I'm also going to be a responsible parent and make sure that my son doesn't turn into someone that would do anything like that.
Sometimes kids have disciplinary issues regardless of the parenting. Some kids have emotional/behavioral disorders. Some kids are on the autism spectrum. Some kids have anxiety disorders. On and on.
One of my son’s friends from elementary school was like this. His parents were good people. We shared most of the same values, had a lot of the same structure in place for our boys. Both are seniors now at different schools. My son has a spotless discipline record. Has never been a problem for anyone. His past buddy has been suspended multiple times for fighting, brought a knife to school and has constant referrals for disrespecting teachers.
Not saying that good parenting isn’t essential. It definitely is, and good on you for committing to that. But for some kids, it’s not the whole answer and they’ll still go sideways even if they have it.

Society would be a lot better if people were held accountable for their actions. It begins with these young kids while they’re still redeemable
If a teacher needs the police to handle a 6 year old then they've chosen the wrong profession.

I have NEVER sided with anyone over my kid.
Then again, I never got called to the school or police station because my child was physically assaulting teachers.
This child is acting to what she has seen or endured herself.
You people defending her parents, I use the term loosely, are doing the child no favors.

No one is defending the parents. We just aren't absolving the adult LEO who couldn't come up with a better solution than arresting a 6 year old.
ETA: Or the idiot "educators" who couldn't curtail the temper tantrum a 6 year old was having without calling the police.

So a good teaching moment for a child that has high percentage of becoming a POS adult was just squandered...
This is exactly what's wrong with society. No personal responsibility at all..

Me neither. Yet we see this situation completely differently.
I guess that makes this statement irrelevant.

Because you’ve interviewed and done a full physiological evaluation?
You’re making assumptions based on your own limited experience.

Again, you’re making assumptions. You don’t know jack about her home life and neither do I. The difference is that I’m willing to admit that instead of pretending like I have this all figured and know everything about people I’ve never seen before in my life.

I would cut them a little slack considering they are very limited in what they could do to stop the girl. I don't think I have actually seen a response to what else could the teachers have done other than "not call the police"

No thanks. If you go into a field to work with children you better be equipped to actually work with children. Again, this would be common sense though.

So, she was born violent?

Calling the parents to come pick up their uncontrollable child was never an option for the school?
This is what happens when you let unicorns shitting skittles believing motherfrickers set school policy.

Does that apply to the police officer too?
He broke his own department’s SOP’s by not getting supervisor approval before arresting someone under the age of 12.
As seen by the reaction to this story that is a valid and bright line policy for dealing with underage individuals. He broke it, he needs to be accountable for his actions.

Looks like this school is churning out real winners.

I'll spare the details but she has a condition that severely affects her maturity, decision making skills, and behavior yet she looks perfectly normal. I can't tell you how many nasty looks I've been given over the years or unsolicited advice I've received about how to discipline her. She couldn't count to ten before she was twelve years old and people think an arse whooping will straighten her right up. It's infuriating.

Point is people always talk about what they'll do before they have kids but life isn't always as simple as that. Like Mike Tyson said: "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face".
