Default Re: 911 joke...

I know a parent needs to be able to discipline their child, but some children are just out of control. Sometimes discipline makes them worse (rather than just doing what they want to do, they start smashing things).

A 12-year old girl kicking a hole through a door is serious stuff. It is very possible that the mother by herself (I assume the dad wasn't home) was not able to control the child either physically or through discipline. If girl represented a danger to herself or her mom (or anyone else), calling 911 is the correct response.

I know police can be called on children who have locked their parents out (I've seen it on Cops...), so it is very reasonable for them to come to control an out of control child.

The dispatcher should not have been so sarcastic.
