They’re plenty of ways to handle this situation before turning the sprinklers on two disabled children, the two children had nothing to do with choosing the location of the bus stop but he put them on the receiving end of what is in effect bullying, a 61-year old man hosing down two disabled children is hardly the actions of being a good neighbor

I don’t see how it’s proper to punish disabled children as your response especially when the children didn’t choose to be disabled or the bus stop

So many better ways he could have handled this... He chose none of them and took it out on the children who had no control of the situation at all? He’s lucky they weren’t my kids, he would have been answering to me.

It’s to my understanding the county would not move the bus stop for what ever reason. Does he sound like a cranky old man? Yes. However he’s old and that gives him the right to be a cranky old man.
The parents of those disabled children should have called the board and said “we need this stop moved, it is currently at the home of a cranky old man. Please move it to our home”.

I’m totally with you on this- he’s taking it out on the children. Wrong wrong wrong.
