My first bus driver could paralyze the whole lot of us by simply ‘looking at us’ in his overhead mirror.
The second was a tiny woman...who had a lead pipe propped beside her left foot.
We were very well behaved children.
# the collective panacea.
I guarantee you that most of the kids in that video do not have a father in their home.
THAT is the key to a great number of our social problems.
No one has power over today’s kids.
Put a professional wrestler on the bus, and if he lays a hand on one of those kids it would be his ass.
The kids know this.
School Boards are frightened to death to take a kid off the bus or ban them from riding.
Horror of Horrors, the parents will attack the school board.
Parents are out working they don’t have the time to take kids to school, or watch them if they are suspended.School is their baby sitter.
The tail is wagging the dog, because the dog hasn’t the courage to stop it.
Bus monitors should be armed with bear repellent spray, at least!!
In the 40s and 50s being sent to the principals office was right next to a hanging. The words “reform school” were uttered in whispers and made you go pale. I ended up in military school, simply because of my attitude problem. I really didn’t need major adjustments, but they were available if needed, LOL
It wouldn’t do any good. The kids aren’t stupid. They know you can put 6 linebackers on the bus armed with commercial grade whips and the kids know that if you so much as speak to them in a raised voice, you would be sued into oblivion.
The grandma is not the problem. The problem is that the children have all the power because the federal government and the current PC climate has given the children all the power. They have no fear.
This is why inner city high school punks can beat up a teacher in class with impunity. Goes to the heart of this article about teens bullying adults.
Of course kids can bully adults, because it is a one-way fight. If the adult stands up for himself in any way, even verbally, at best there is a lawsuit or firing, at worst some kid will claim you molested them, and you you are presumed guilty on that charge.
We need to go back to a power balance where the kids are in fear of the adults and not the other way around. But guess what. It isn’t going to happen. PC is entrenched and this will only get worse.
I so hate modern life and the ridiculous nonsensical culture we currently have. Up is down and dark is light.
If we can’t find some way to get back to Judeo-Christian moral basics, we are completely doomed. The kids running the asylum and keeping adults in fear because the kids have all the power, is just one symptom of the liberal idiocy of modern American culture.
It is absurd. Everything liberals touch falls to ruin.
