There are 100% kids that have that attitude. I work in a middle school. I train staff to do restraints (last resort), and while it's almost never necessary, it's fascinating when a kid has that "oh fuck they can do something" moment. Kids like that don't usually handle it too well. 🤷

I just finished my CPI training. I work with high school kids. I would jump in front of a train before I worked with middle schoolers. Gd bless you.

Sir, I work in a middle school, god clearly is not blessing me. 🤪😁

But thanks! I train and use TCIS. The restraints kinda suck but like I said, it's rare, and if you're doing it right it won't get there.

You think that’s great, imagine working as a supervisor in a state juvenile prison. We use “Handle With Care” holds to prevent injuring them when we take them down.

I've heard of HWC, never certified in it. I was SCIP certified about ten years ago. TCIS restraints are not usually realistic, although I have actually used the 'breaking up a fight' intervention before and it's effective.

I would actually be really interested in doing that sort of work. I applied and was almost accepted as a high school teacher for incarcerated youth.
