  1. Wow! I bet they'll get a stern talking to about that! probation maybe? More likely community service….

  2. When I was in school we got whacked with a ruler for talking in class, the boys got lashes from the principal for any kind of misbehavior, and then we still got good beatings from our parents at home..
    It taught us discipline and respect… Something todays youngsters have no clue about whatsoever…
    Todays kids are way too soft..
    Mothers of today need to stop idolizing their children like some kind of child fetish..
    What ever happened to survival of the fittest..
    The child who swallows the most marbles does
    not get to grow up and have children of their own..
    It's called natural selection.. The strong survive and the weak perish..

  3. if I had a child in that class, them two cruel teachers would be hanging. enough bad in the world …

  4. Assault and battery on a minor negligence psychological abuse

  5. It's not your fault…you actually were on your toes and did protect your child…

  6. It doesn't surprise me at all. Lots of people in childcare & teaching positions abuse children. There should always be cameras recording all classrooms. Imagine these women do this knowing they are being recorded. What did they do in areas that don't have cameras, like the bathroom? Young kids are an unreliable witness. They are unable to tell their parents because they don't know what it being done to them is wrong & abusive.

  7. As a former educator, there are two fundamental rules that "All" teachers must respect.

    1) Always be prepared to teach
    2) Never touch a student

  8. Go figure. This preschool is sn evil place.

  9. Who doing background checks I think every daycare should have undercover cameras 4 the protection of the kids…. thats a parent worse nightmare : ( shame shame on them !!!

  10. Sharks machines Utah sharks machines Utah sharks machines Utah sharks machines Utah sharks machines Utah sharks machines Utah sharks machines Utah

  11. Welcome to child care in America. These "teachers" are paid poverty wages. Most make around $12-$14 per hour, less than most burger flippers these days. They must also have certifications, and state regulatory systems prefer workers with degrees.

    Qualified workers are next to impossible to come by since you can work at a gas station or work fast food and make more money. Early education programs at schools are failing because no one wants to go into a field that guarantees poverty. States heavily regulate daycare centers, even more so than most public schools, driving up costs but providing no financial support. Centers face both heavy regulatory burdens and private market pressures. Prices would have to increase significantly to pay these people a fair wage. That is something many parents simply cannot afford. The entire industry is about to collapse, which will remove millions of parents from the labor pool.

    Would you let the pot-smoking burger flipper at Mcdonald's watch your kids daily? Would you be surprised if he acted like these people did? Right now that burger flipper has a better career outlook than most daycare "teachers". You get what you pay for…. people have know that since humans started trading rocks.

  12. Disgusting I never give them a job to babysit my dog , I am glad they’re arrested , they need to be in jail 💩💩

  13. I hope these bullyies get prison time. Our precious children feeling so scared and helpless, and in pain. I can't imagine the emotional harm.

  14. So glad that lady took action, little kids mistreated like that, put them away

  15. i dont get it. not a big deal

  16. If someone stepped on my hand, I would be very quick to try to move it, but the kid's hand didn't jerk, didn't twist, didn't appear to do anything but stay right where it was. Sometimes things are very different than they appear, no?

  17. homeschool your kids stop giving them away

  18. Muslims. End of debate.

  19. The hand and knee thing was a bit much. But to call this abuse like it's damaging violence is way overstating. These kids won't remember this and won't be traumatized. It was over measured discipline acting on frustration. Getting prison time or other calls for punishments that don't fit the crime are unwarranted. The sensitivity in the world today is off the charts. We can't be so emotional. Some parents on here calling for certain punishments have 100% done worse than this.

  20. Doing this with a camera looking right at them..Back in the day the cops would have been called, right after Big Mama got done with them..

  21. Should not only have strict gun laws but also should have a even more strict hiring process when it comes to teachers. After all they're responsible for educating our kids & to treat innocent kids like that? These people are scums & that's just an understatement…

  22. Since GOP and Donald Trump in power, this crazy things seem happen everyday.

  23. Disgusting! Grown ash women bullying CHILDREN

  24. This is shocked and two people belong to the be lock up for a long long time .

  25. Its unfortunate for parents having to
    watch abuse by demented individuals against their children.

  26. Mamma should have whooped dat azz.

  27. That's y I keep my child home with me homeschooling just don't trust folks.

  28. Don’t give your children to strangers. For all you know, one day they may kidnap the children and never come back.

    Keep your kids at home or with a trusted friend/relative!

  29. This is why we shouldn't arm teachers with guns expecting them to protect the children. To many can't be trusted.

  30. I would never leave my child with a stranger and that's exactly what preschools are. dropping them all strangers that's why I'm a stay at home mom.
