#1) If A small business does something like this, there’s calls for ta, feathering and death threats.
#2) The government does this and there’s calls for empathy for the poor ole’ underpaid bus driver.
Homeschoolers never have these problems.
my kids rode the bus once and that was enough of that.
There are regions in the US where the police have the ability to commandeer your ring doorbell for enforcement purposes. It’s surveillance state equipment. I’m glad the kids were safe but I don’t want police watching cameras throughout the neighborhood, who comes and goes in your house etc.
Praising God these children found safe havens until they could be reunited with their families.
Yes, even little kids can be coached on what to do in situations like this. And there are ways to hide the parents’ contact info in the kid’s clothing, just in case.
Bus driver should be keel hauled.
I’m only in my 50s, and I WALKED to school (or biked when there was no snow) every.single.day. even in kindergarten
When exactly did it happen that every child needed a government taxi-service to get to school?
Here in my county, the cut-off is 2 miles from the school...............
A while back there was a ‘request’ from some local LEO officials to have all the ‘RING type’ door cameras linked to the PD’s.......................
Kids who need that level of checking (which, yes, would be most 5-year-olds) should not be riding school buses.
We rode the bus. Every year there were little snafus but not major and they were quickly cleared up. Broke down and effed up is what this country is. Totally.
We never have to worry about "school shooters" either - fat chance anyone makes it into our "school" that doesn't belong here.
Or there should be an aide riding the bus to keep tabs on the little ones (like age 5 thru 8); the driver can’t drive and do that too safely
Or maybe dragged around the route behind his own bus, with a dozen lashes at each stop to help him remember where they are.
Exactly, this incident is just another reason to homeschool your children.
“We never have to worry about “school shooters” either - fat chance anyone makes it into our “school” that doesn’t belong here.”
Ditto that.
On the first day of school Mom Dad or a friend should have been following the school bus. This kind of thing happens all the time the first day of school even the first week of school.
A person who was really on top of things would have found out the route of the school bus and taken the kids beforehand around to show them where they would be let off so that they could tell the bus driver this isn’t our stop.
As a parent grandparent and great-grandparents you have to know that you have to be proactive. You quiz the kids and ask them what they would do in different circumstances. It’s a tough world out there and kids need to be prepared and we need to prepare them and not expecting any state to take care of them.
Too me it’s just more than I’d want a little boy like that to have to deal with—before and after a day of kindergarten.
Kind of curious that he and the boyfriend’s daughter weren’t sticking close to each other, however.
