A kindergartner was arrested and thrown into a Florida jail last week after she acted up at school.
Desre'e Watson, 6, was arrested on felony charges. Police said the child threw chairs and hit a teacher.
Her mother said she has never seen that kind of behavior and thinks something must have brought it on.
"Im afraid she might have trauma from this because right now she's like slacking up on eating and I've noticed like different things have changed," said Lateshia Wilson, Desrees mother.
The principal said they try to call parents first when a child is out of control, but if they cannot reach a parent, they call police.
Desre'es parents are considering a lawsuit.
The state attorney's office will decide whether to prosecute the child. She faces charges of disruption of a school function, battery on school employees and resisting a law enforcement officer without violence.
