Police Charge 9-Year-Old Girl With ‘Battery’ For Allegedly Punching Her Sister

Police in Indianapolis, Indiana just arrested a 9-year-old girl for allegedly hitting her sister. The child was charged with battery after her mother thought that calling the police might help teach her daughter a lesson.

But instead of giving the girl a stern talking-to, and putting a good scare in her, officers determined that the correct course of action was to arrest the girl, and put her through the system.

The report filed by the arresting officer claims that the girl’s mother, Andrea Stumpf, “stated that her 9-year-old daughter punched her 6-year-old sister in the head.”

Stumpf filmed the incident, and when the police viewed the footage “the officer made the decision to arrest,” according to Officer Rafael Diaz from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.

Officer Diaz said that it is not unusual for police to arrest children that young.

“It happens. It seems like we spend a lot of our time dealing with juvenile issues,” Diaz claimed.

Who's pressing the charges against her?

The police didn't witness it. The six year old is too young. Is the mother pressing charges? Is the cop? Is this considered a felony?

See, ladies, you don't need a man around the house. And when you do need a man around the house, just call 911--and ruin everyone's lives.

I can't believe the woman stood there and filmed one kid hitting another without doing something. Put down the damn phone and deal with your kids.

Is there a dumbest parent ever award? You don't call the police to "teach your child a lesson."

Dear Parent:

It is not your job to expect the police to parent for you.

It is not your job to expect teachers to parent for you.

It is not your job to expect (insert government employee here) to parent for you.

It is your job to be a parent.

Part of being a parent is finding the discipline method that is most effective at correcting a given misbehavior. A hint: since children are different, you will likely discover that what works for one daughter may not have the same effect on the other.

One kid punching another kid is classic childhood misbehavior. It does not require government intervention. Attempting to scare your kids into good behavior is well known to backfire.

Natural consequences are the most effective. Get your kid back and start parenting. She'll thank you for it one day.

Do you think a grand jury would indict her?

Get your kid back and start parenting.

Too late now, this has more than likely set into motion a chain of events that will tear this family apart and possibly haunt this girl for the rest of her life.
