Mother demands answers after video shows age 4 son being yanked and dangled upside down by preschool worker

A horrific video has emerged from Kinder Kids Christian Preschool in Los Angeles, sparking outrage from a mother whose 4-year-old son was subjected to rough treatment by a staff member.

BrieAnn Battle was left in a state of utter despair, she described, after witnessing the surveillance footage capturing the incident that took place on March 14th. The video depicts a staff member, who remains unidentified, forcefully grabbing the young boy by the arms and pinning them to the ground.

This act of aggression is followed by the employee yanking the boy by his ankles and lifting him upside down in a disturbing display of manhandling. “No parent should ever have to witness their child being treated with such violence,” Battle rightfully expressed.

Battle’s initial reaction was to seek answers. She was shown the video by another staff member, prompting her to confront the preschool owner. Hoping for a sincere explanation, Battle entered the meeting with the owner with a desire for a frank conversation “woman-to-woman.” She acknowledged that challenging situations can arise, but was met with a response that left her feeling deeply disturbed.

“The owner is completely denying everything,” Battle revealed, “it’s absolutely sickening.” Further fueling Battle’s outrage, the owner allegedly presented a different video clip, seemingly in an attempt to downplay the incident. “She showed me a snippet of when she took him outside, a time when he was apparently being active,” Battle explained, implying the owner’s attempt to manipulate the narrative, ABC 7 reported.

Faced with the owner’s unwillingness to take responsibility, Battle took decisive action. A police report was filed, accusing the daycare of child abuse. “This isn’t just a simple mistake,” Battle emphasized, “the owner’s attempt to cover this up makes it a criminal act.”

While the staff member responsible for the abuse has reportedly resigned, for Battle, that’s not enough. The alleged attempt to conceal the incident has ignited a fire within her to pursue legal action. “This owner shouldn’t be entrusted with caring for any child,” Battle declared, “her license needs to be revoked.”

Having secured legal representation, Battle is determined to ensure no other child endures a similar ordeal at this daycare. “For that matter, she doesn’t need to be taking care of anybody else’s kids, and her license needs to be revoked,” Battle concluded, demanding justice for her son and the safety of other children.
