What does teaching with jelly beans have to do with anything? Are children or anyone for that matter not allowed to indulge in treats once in awhile? God, yeah... candy is the anti-Christ but a child who becomes violent in school is perfectly acceptable, right? And by the way, it didn't say they were eating the jelly beans.

While I think arresting a 5 year old is drastic, I can't really say I would know how to handle a violent child from a teacher's point of view. I'm not a teacher or a parent but that child has problems and if you think writing it off as a normal childhood tantrum is accurate, I hope you don't have kids now or ever.
