ty 2,

of course i hope you know i am going to use the lawyer thing on you some
day

as a joke of course haha

Ugh..........Is everything settled now?

That took me almost 20 minutes to read!!!!!

Aiden, I had no problem whatsoever interpreting what you meant. And I
have no problem with your opinion either.

If the girl was truly sick, and she asked to be let off the bus in order
to throw up, then the driver drove off and left her, then it would be
TOTALLY the driver's and/or monitor's fault for having done that.

If the girl was not sick, then the driver had no business letting her
off the bus at a stop other than her own, unless she had a permission
slip. And even then, hell, those can be forged.

However, if she wasn't sick and didn't just "get left," if she did it in
order to play hooky from school, then she is just as much (if not more)
at fault than the driver/monitor are.

The reason I say "more" is because she knows not to do that in the first
place!

And I'm not saying this as an affront to GEHC and I hope she knows this.
I'd say it no matter who posted. If MY OWN DAUGHTER pulled a stunt like
that, she'd have hell to pay.

That's just how I approach parenting. I don't believe in absolving kids
of their accountability just because they're "kids." By the time they
reach teen age, they're old enough to know better. And sure, they're
going to "do it anyway," but, at least in my household, they'd know
they'd catch hell for it later on, so they'd best have themselves a
grand old time while they're skipping school.

yea i think everyone is fine now and we have new member of our family

here last night, but I think all is well now, Wifee........

See ya later, Two.........

At your going to let me slide with calling you old woman,,,,,
Man What a softy... Damn Jean your slacking....

It didn't occur to me that you were speaking to me. This is for two
reasons:

A) I'm NOT old.

and

B) You ever seen legs that hot on an OLD woman?

Greyhound, you raised some good points. Some of the newer school buses
are quite long. The school bus driver is responsible for all of the kids
not just one. In some places the school bus has to go over train tracks.
The history of the school bus itself is quite interesting. The doors on
top of the bus incase the school bus lands up on its side. Adults who
want to get on the bus along the way. Some may be parents. The two way
radio should be a federal law. The bus monitor should be a federal law.
What if the school bus breaks down on the way and what if the school bus
runs out of fuel? Kids that try to get on the bus when the driver has to
take it home. Kids that like to take out the emergency flares to knock
out another kid on the bus. Kids that like to play with the exit door
while the bus driver is driving. Kids that complain whether the bus
driver has the radio on and they don't like that music the bus driver is
listening to. Kids that try to take the seats off the bus and throw them
out the exit door. Kids that act up if the school bus has a flat. Bus
drivers that have to work more than one job because the salary of the
job doesn't pay that much and then the school gets off early
interrupting sleep. Diesel buses that have to be plugged in the winter.
Parents that call in continually complaining about how their kid got
hurt on the bus. I don't want the job any more. You can have it.

well... I'm back to square one...

*Huge Sigh*

the story was snubbed....the other parent chickened out

WTF... WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF!!!!!!!

caitlyn's first year in school started with a bang. her
sixteen-year-old sister went to the high school, which was across the
football field from caitlyn's school. the teachers were well-informed
that hailey would be walking caitlyn home from school, and that they
were to hold her there until her sister could get her.

we only lived maybe half a mile away, but that's not the point. hailey
showed up to get her sister, and she was just gone. none of the
teachers had a clue...the principal, several teachers...they were all
searching for my baby. she was found at my elderly neighbors house,
thank goodness...and she had walked the whole way herself, including
crossing a fairly busy street and railroad tracks.

to give the school credit, they responded well and quickly. more
teachers were assigned to the area, and a fencing system was put into
place so that the children could only leave in one place.

as a teenager, i skipped quite a bit of school. i would have made
certain i got off AT the school, however...

as a mom, i'd've been furious, both at the school, AND at my kid.
however, i'd also realize that stuff happens.
