How old is this kid? Enduring assault and battery is not part
of your job. I'd think seriously about calling the police the
next time it happens. At the very least, he needs to be out of
there NOW. Call a VP and have the child removed to the office,
where he can wait for his Mama to come take him away. If she
thinks you're the problem, surely she won't mind spending the
rest of her own day with the little dear.
