One word spanking. Far more appropriate than arrest or commitment.Commiting a child, arresting them, putting them on meds they might not even need does irreperable harm. Spanking does no permanent damage, it merely temporarily humiliates a child and reminds them the grownups are
in charge and they had best behave. When I was a kid if someone had acted this way, the teacher would have spanked them and dragged them to the principals office, the principal would have spanked them, the mom would have to come get them and she would spank them and when the dad got home from work, he would have spanked them.Well guess what, very few kids were wild enough to want to run that gauntlet so it rarely ever happened. Heck if you misbehaved in public, a neighbor or storekeeper or perfect stranger might spank you, truly a polite society.
