A local father said his family had enough, and they've taken out a restraining order to protect his daughter from a kindergarten bully.He said the school wasn't doing enough."She came home and said a student threatened her by saying, 'I want to slit your throat and watch you bleed,'" Brian Metzger said.UPDATE: Judge dismisses restraining order against Kindergarten boyMetzger was talking about his kindergarten daughter being threatened and physically attacked by a 5-year-old classmate in a Kenosha County elementary school."The whole year she's been dealing with it. There have been other students in the classroom who have been dealing with the same individual," Metzger said.The dad said the school's failure to protect his daughter led the family to take a more drastic step."I think they should have done something a lot sooner. They've kept him in the same classroom with my daughter throughout this until Wednesday morning because Tuesday night I showed up with a restraining order," Metzger said.The police report that details the accusations of bullying at Prairie Lane Elementary School says the kindergarten girl was kicked in the face, and had sand and rocks thrown at her."There's always two sides to every story," Kenosha Unified School District spokeswoman Tanya Ruder said.Ruder said she couldn't talk specifics, but WISN 12 News reporter Terry Sater asked what has to happen before a student is removed from a classroom."There's not a set threshold of what causes or what would determine when a child is moved out of a classroom," Ruder said.Metzger said his little girl who used to love kindergarten now doesn't want to go to school."What they're doing, their policies aren't good enough," Metzger said.A hearing on the restraining order is set for May 20.Metzger said he will keep fighting to get the bully removed from his daughter's school.
