[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 418349, member: 1233"] This DOES make me wonder what would happen if one of our difficult children was in full rage and one of us used pepper spray on them? I know that for some reason there are parents who use hot sauce on the tongue as a punishment for something (don't understand this at all, but I have heard of parents who do it) and sometimes CPS says this is abuse. Why is it that the school and police, who deal with our difficult children for very short periods of time compared to us, can pepper spray them but if one of us even hinted we wanted to, we would be in jail or at least in trouble with police and CPS. So they cannot take ten-fifteen minutes to try to talk a child down but they CAN call out police and have the kid pepper sprayed? But at home we have to deal with far worse threats, our kids taking knives, stealing, breaking every rule and threatening us but we cannot do ANYTHING and if they are at home the police often don't even bother to do anything if/when they get around to coming to "help"? The world is just too nuts. [/QUOTE]
