How many daycare workers lose it and are arrested for child abuse?

I just got a min. wage job as a daycare "teacher" but quit when I got my dream job. Anyway, many of the kids are out of control brats. I think this is because they are raised in daycare all their lives without their mother...They become more aggressive and less empathetic than other children. Many of the kid would kick and hit me....And these kids were not that little as many of them were 5 and 6. They would spit at me and run around the room and laugh as I had to chase them. They would throw towns intentionally all over the room and laugh because I had to pick them up. They were all around brats. How many workers do you think lose it and do a minor thing like give them a or slap them on the face? Then they are arrested for "child abuse" and have their lives ruined...When I previously thought of a child abuse conviction I would think the person was an evil nut that perhaps poored burning wax on a kid or beat them til they were bloody...But even a little slap or even a would be abuse.
