Diciplinary actions, civil charges maybe ... criminal? NO.


HAMILTON, Miss. (AP) — Four people linked to viral video footage of Mississippi day care employees using a scary mask to frighten young children are facing charges of felony child abuse, and a fifth person faces two misdemeanor counts, authorities say.

The daycare’s owner, Sheila Sanders, is not facing charges. She has said that at least four of the employees were fired after the video came to light.

The videos — one filmed in September and another this month — were posted on social media. They show a day care worker at Lil’ Blessings Child Care & Learning Center in Hamilton, an unincorporated community in northeast Mississippi, wearing a Halloween mask similar to the one in the “Scream” movies and yelling at children who didn’t “clean up” or “act good.”

Besides, their real faces are scarier .
 
Child abuse is child abuse whether it's physical or mental.

One can argue that the mental component is much worse because it cannot ever heal.
 
Mental components are subjective. Physical are not.
 
Oh ffs!

If someone who I'd trusted to take car of my preschooler did that to my kid it would take all of my self control not to punch them. It could create all kinds of anxiety and nightmares. The kid may be uncomfortable being left with anyone for years.

It could be stupidity, immaturity, or just a sadistic streak. Someone who does that may not deserve jail time, but there is already plenty of real shit for kids to be scared of, a 'joker' like that has no business being around other people's kids.
