PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. - A South Florida couple is outraged after they said their daughter was suspended from her middle school for using a child butter knife at lunchtime to cut a peach.

"There's no one there trying to educate and to be reasonable to say, 'Let's work this out,'" the girl's father, Ronald Souto, said.

Souto's daughter is an honor roll student at Silver Trail Middle School in Pembroke Pines.
