[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, kids are awful on the bus. I’m a school counselor and there are some who bully others horribly. All the more reason the bus driver should be modeling civility for them. They should be trained to deescalate, not tell kids to F off. That mom might have overstepped, but she was being protective of her kid and her neighbors’ kids, and I understand that impulse. Especially if MCPS had blown off her concerns. There’s so much abuse of power these days in general that everyone should be working double time to protect those who have less power. If that sometimes means overstepping, so be it. [/quote]

In this case, a better word for overstepping is trespassing.[/quote]

Yup.

She was manipulating the situation.  She knew she would be filmed.  I have zero doubts kids are terrible to each other on the bus.  My kid was bullied and had property destroyed by other students.  Do you know who is NOT responsible?  The bus driver.  He was paid to drive a bus.

Shame on the school system for over crowding busses, and shame on this mom making this driver a scapegoat for problems on the bus.  [/quote]
