A School Apparently Made A 5-Year-Old Sign A Contract Promising Not To Kill Anyone After She Pretended Her Crayon Was A Gun

She apparently “pointed it at another student and said ‘pew pew’”.

1. WPMI-TV has recently reported on the case of Rebecca.

Rebecca, who doesn’t wish to give her full name, is the mother of a 5-year-old girl, Elizabeth, who attends E.R. Dickson Elementary school in Mobile, Alabama.

2. She told the station she’s furious that her daughter was asked to sign a Mobile County Public Safety Contract promising she wouldn’t kill herself or others.

 

3. In an interview with the station she said:


They told me she drew something that resembled a gun. According to them she pointed a crayon at another student and said, ‘pew pew’.

4. She told the station her daughter was then given a questionnaire to evaluate her for suicidal thoughts.

5. Her daughter was then apparently given a contract to sign without Rebecca’s permission.

6. She told the station: “My child interrupted us and said, ‘What is suicide mommy? Daddy what is suicide?’”

“As a parent that’s not right,” she added.

WPMI-TV reported that it had contacted school officials to “see what the proper protocol is when handling “violent-like” behavior,” but had not heard back.
