"A photo of a child strapped to his napping mat at a Texas daycare has sparked a state investigation into the school's practices."
"The image of an unidentified child at Heart2Heart Montessori Academy in Willow Park showed the boy secured to the mat with two strips of duct tape over his blanket, with one at the feet and the other over his shoulders. The picture was taken by a now-former employee of the school."
"This image of a child strapped down at his daycare has sparked an investigation by Texas child services officials Parent Lorrie Almquist said the image led to a confrontation with academy co-owner Pam Decker on Wednesday."
"Decker then admitted to her that she'd resorted to similar tactics with Almquist's son, 3, on the same day the picture was taken. 'I was honestly in such shock, I had no words to say to her,' Almquist told KHOU. 'I was immediately angry. Upset.' "
"She immediately removed her son from the school. "
" 'She was very apologetic, and told me it was something that probably shouldn't have been done,' she said. "
