Some kids are very sensitive about going back to school. A 13-year-old boy in Salisbury, NC threatened his live-in babysitter with a steak knife because she asked him to do his homework multiple times. The 31-year-old woman said she had just finished making the boy a snack when she asked about his homework. After asking a few more times, she grabbed his bookbag, prompting him to snap.

She turned around and saw him armed with a steak knife, claiming that he would stab her if she did not get out of his bag. She called the police, and after taking the boy into custody, they handed him off to his mother. What's worse, doing your homework or detention with the police?
