[QUOTE="klmno, post: 276445, member: 3699"] NAMI told me they were training police around here and I could tell a difference in the way cops handled things several months later when I had to call them on difficult child. I don't know that it does a lot, but it did make some difference. They came with tasers instead of "real" guns, but they still ordered difficult child to the floor on his stomach immediately. This was after I told all of them at the door that he had locked himself in his room with a knife and threatening to kill himself and had been cutting himself. He was on probation- they could have sent him straight to detention but didn't. I guess any training helps and they still have to protect themselves. [/QUOTE]
