    Daycare Worker Records Herself Taunting Three Year-Old Boy

    A daycare worker in Hamden Connecticut, recorded herself on a cell phone camera verbally harassing Michael, a 3-year-old boy until he cried. A teacher's assistant apparently has Michael sitting in a chair because he had "a moment," though it is not shown. Excerpts from the exchange include: "I don't like you," says Michael. "Newsflash, sweetheart: I don't really like you either, 'cause you throw toys," she responds to the 3-year-old. "I can knock your head off," Michael replies, clearly becoming frustrated. "Do it. C'mon. C'mon, boss, let's go. You wanna scrap," she replies laughing. Then she continues: "Do it. Go ahead. No balls. Oh you're a tough guy. Hey boss, show me your nine." The boy's mother posted the troubling footage hoping "that you watch this video and help us spread awareness to other parents.My son has suffered and I don't want any other child to go through what my child has been through." The teacher's assistant has since been suspended pending an internal investigation by the daycare.
