Laws already exist regarding elderly abuse. No further laws are needed, and this should NOT be used by an opportunistic politico to further their career. I’m wondering why this woman did NOT bring the abuse by these “students” to the attention of the bus driver, who has the authority to put an end to such behavior.
If a “monitor” doesn’t monitor for such things... what the heck does a “monitor” monitor for?
The comments sound sardonic to me. A bunch of tongues are in their respective cheeks here. As is mine to see the sympathy fund... it looks like the school system is a bunch of spineless wimps rather than it being some fundamentally insuperable problem with school kids.
“Elderly abuse” situations generally take place where the elderly in question have no particular authority and are dependent on being cared for. This was a case where the adult was in a position to have been helped but didn’t get the help. It’s not quite the same, like oranges and pomegranates.
