Yup I bet the boy learnt a lesson alright............
A six-year-old boy from Florida has been arrested for kicking his pregnant mother in the stomach.The woman decided to call in the police after her son attacked her during an argument.
Mattie Ashley says she hopes it will serve as a learning experience for the boy, who suffers from hyperactivity disorder.
He has been suspended from kindergarten for kicking a pregnant teacher previously.
Mrs Ashley said she hoped the police involvement would scare the boy into realising what he did was wrong.
But police said they were not in the business of being used to scare children and refused to let her son go when Mrs Ashley said she was dropping the charges.
Sheriff's Deputy Jennifer Jazdzyk wrote in the arrest report: "I explained to Mrs Ashley that if she wanted a criminal investigation to take place that it would be followed through to the end, that we were not going to just scare the child with the presence of a deputy."
The boy, who was not named, was released when State Department of Juvenile Justice officials, who were contacted after his arrest, ordered deputies to release him.
