New Teaching Methods: Handcuffs!!!!!!!!!!!

I had no idea that handcuffs had become the teaching tool of Mississippi until I read some recent news articles.  Can you say WHAT!!!!  Seriously now, how many of you would have had more than a calm talk with school, media, teacher?  So what would you do if this was your child?

One has to ask, if you have to restrain your students just how much are you teaching them and what are you teaching them?
