In Chelyabinsk, concerns about a kindergarten teacher’s conduct surfaced after a mother reported possible bullying of her child. The claim was reported by 74.ru, sparking immediate attention from local families and authorities. The incident gained prominence when the 6-year-old child disclosed the events to his parents, describing a troubling scene in which bread from the trash was given to the boy and he subsequently became sick. The other children reportedly laughed during the episode, which intensified the gravity of the situation and raised questions about the wellbeing of students in the group.
The mother reviewed the CCTV footage that parents have access to, observing a teacher wearing rubber gloves as the child was served bread and seated at the table. The visual record prompted a formal response from the kindergarten, which announced that a service-pedagogical investigation was underway to review the circumstances and ensure proper procedures were followed. In parallel, the Regional Investigation Committee Office indicated that an official check would be conducted to assess the actions taken and any potential violations of child-protection regulations.
The incident adds to a wider conversation about safeguarding in early education facilities. It underscores the importance of transparent reporting mechanisms, timely reviews, and clear guidelines for staff, parents, and administrators. Local authorities stress that the safety and dignity of every child are paramount and that investigations will be thorough and fair, with steps taken to address any findings and to support affected families. The kindergarten community remains focused on maintaining a safe, nurturing environment for all students while these questions are resolved. [Source: 74.ru]
Earlier in Yekaterinburg, a related concern emerged near a kindergarten when a young girl wearing flip-flops was seen walking alone on a public street.

Authorities have noted the importance of consistent adult presence and the availability of resources to prevent situations where a child could be left unattended in public spaces. Community members are calling for ongoing surveillance, outreach to families, and clear protocols for reporting concerns as part of a broader effort to strengthen child protection services in the region.
