A kindergarten teacher in Pingtan county, Fujian province, was recently fired after a CCTV camera exposed her cold-hearted treatment of kids, Straits News reported on Jan 22.

In a video clip, Sunny, the sacked teacher, without her Chinese name revealed, is seen to “toss” a kid onto the bed at the dorm of the Jinzuo Kindergarten.

The rude behavior triggered an outcry among parents, some of whom claimed they found signs of injury on their children’s bodies.

“The kids have fragile limbs. Even if the teacher didn’t hurt them by doing so, it will leave a scar on their minds,” said a parent to the newspaper.

The kindergarten later explained that the kid tossed by Sunny was acting up. And strictly speaking she didn’t show any other signs of abuse. But the kindergarten’s authority decided to fire her in the end for her uncaring behavior.
