A Florida grandmother was shocked to find out her 6-year old granddaughter had been arrested Thursday for throwing a tantrum at school.

Meralyn Kirkland says Kaia was arrested at Lucious and Emma Nixon Elementary Charter School by Orlando police officers and taken to the juvenile detention center.

The first grader was handcuffed and carted off where Kirkland says she was fingerprinted and even had a mug shot taken.

Here’s more on the story via NBC Channel 8 News.

This is absolutely ridiculous! She’s 6! No child that young should go through the traumatic ordeal of being arrested.

There are many children of all races around Kaia’s age that have tantrums.

In fact, Kourtney Kardashian‘s 7-year old daughter Penelope recently scratched her babysitter in the face and her parents acted as if it was normal.

Kourtney immediately begin making excuses for her daughter, and Penelope’s father Scott Disick didn’t seem to get a reaction until Corey Gamble – Grandmother Kris Jenner’s boyfriend – shared his opinion.  The nanny eventually quit after that incident.

Now back to Kaia. Surely, the school could have came up with a better solution that didn’t involve sending this baby to jail.

At this time, no word on whether these charges will be dropped. We’ll keep y’all updated.
