Child's handwritten note criticizing teacher for punishing students unfairly.

An 11-year-old girl has accused her teacher of committing war crime by writing a note on a feedback form that evaluates the teacher.

Ava Cross wrote a precocious note on a feedback form that asked what the teacher could do to improve.
