don’t remember much in the way of behavior issues

This guy does: "I am terrified of School Buses..... In certain instances. I hate driving on the road and pulling up next to School buses at a light. I still remember riding the bus to school and looking out the window and making fun of the people in cars around me. I hate thinking that a bus full of kids is making fun of me. Second, I rode the bus with some terrible kids, I’ve seen them throw combination locks, pens, etc. out the window at cars and saw one guy break a windshield with a well tossed master lock. I don’t know what I would do if a lock hit my car. Do you get out? Do you just keep driving? This, like many things in my life is driven by intense insecurity.

I cannot for the life of me understand how a bus driver is supposed to drive and supervise at the same time. If he is watching the kids, then he is not watching the road and vice versa.

Every bus should have a supervisor or it doesn’t run. We’re to the point where kindergarten kids are so out of hand that they are getting kicked off school buses. What is a driver to do?

Is this the wonderful “real world” socialization that homeschoolers are missing?

Could some government school defender please explain to me how this environment is good for kids?
