I must admit, when I first read the P.S. my snap judgement was "Okay, so you're saying that if my kid comes home and tells me you beat him, I shoudln't believe him?". Whether it's a joke or not, like I've been saying, it's still in poor taste.
The main reason I question the restraint thing, other than I woudln't want anyone else disciplining my child to that extent, is because of my job. I know a nursing home isn't similar to a day care, but even at work we can't legally restrain someone as far as 'tying' them down or anything like that. We can't even put up a siderail on a bed without a dr's order because legally it's a restraint too. We coudln't put a vertical exstention on the footboard of a bed to keep someone from crawling out & falling, even with a dr's order, because it's also a restraint. Things of that nature that we're not allowed to do are because of state laws. That said, I don't know if it's a "No restraint, period." type of law or a Dept of Health/Nursing Home thing. I ought to look into it.
