Up a Tree
In Wiltshire, England, a five-year-old boy climbed into a tree at playtime, so the staff did exactly what they were trained to do. They left him there, lest their efforts to get him down distract him and cause him to fall. Kim Barrett passed by the school about 45 minutes later and saw the boy was alone and in a tree, so she helped him down and took him inside. The school reported her to the police for trespassing.
