If a cop came across their own kid breaking and entering. Would they taser them on principle?

I suppose it would depend on the cop. Some won't even taser a stranger unless the person was coming at them in a hostile manner. Some seem to think it's the easiest answer, and easiest is best. Some wouldn't ever harm their own child, but then you get some who are harder on their own because of higher expectations, or embarrassment. And then there are the abusive cops who will hurt the kid just because they can.
