[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was contemplating letting my current 6th grader ride metro bus next year. She’s in private but it stops outside her school and a block from our house. I’ve been going thru scenarios in my head and one of them was to tell her to get off the bus if someone on the bus makes her uncomfortable. This is now making me realize I need to rethink that. She’ll have a phone and the ride is less than 10 mins. [/quote] Telling a kid to get off the bus is probably bad advice. The best advice would be for your kid to sit close to the operator and even talk to the operator. There are shields but they don’t block everything. Buses are also equipped with emergency buttons and emergency phones. And operators don’t want to be responsible for anything bad happening to your kid so they will intervene if they are aware. But operators cannot watch the road and the back of the bus at the same time. OTOH, getting off a train when you’re uncomfortable is likely good advice. There is help available in the station.
