Texas Youth Commission's Use of Pepper Spray

After reading the Texas Youth Commission's Use of Pepper Spray, i think its wrong to use pepper spray on children. I understand the need for some sort of protection for the guards and the children who are hurting themselves or others, but I'm not sure that an expanded use of pepper spray to do so is a good idea. Not only is it painful, but it causes serious burns and it seems that TYC guards are misusing it. I actually feel that pepper spray should be used as a last resort to physical restraint.I can understand using pepper spray if the situation is getting out of hand or as a least resort for the guards, but it should not be used as a front line against the juveniles. Although they are incarcerated, they are still children and youths and should be treated as such.
