Parents in Vietnam expressed outrage after surveillance video at a private kindergarten in Saigon showed the teacher mistreating and roughly handling children in her care.
The school’s surveillance camera, whose feed is sent to parents, caught the teacher picking three children and throwing them down a mattress, before violently pushing others to make space.
