Now that bimbo plays the innocent victim. Fire her. She's a typical spoiled brat. There's no respect in her family. Seriously some bus drivers just don't even belong in that profession in the first place. She'll become someone elses problem.
Knew a bus driver once who would take his newspaper with him and when the kids got too rowdy, he would pull over in a safe spot, read his paper, and tell the kids that when they settled down enough for him to drive safely he would continue his drive to get them home. The rest of the kids who wanted to get home and have their snacks and get to play used peer pressure to get the bad kids to stop. It worked like a charm, nobody wanted to be "that kid" who held up the bus.
@@aaronowen4425 Our district actually expects the driver to pull over and stop if things are getting out of hand on the bus. If things get too unruly, law enforcement can be requested over the radio as well. We have had students removed by school personnel, police officers or Sheriffs Deputies over the years. Parents usually understand delays because they want their kids to be safe on the bus.
@@jameydenison2045 Oh definitely, The bus driver can pull the bus over and sit on the side of the road (on their own time of course, if they have a second job to get to that becomes problematic) I had problems with a kid that was a shuttle kid, pulled over - the police were called, also the principle of the school the kid went to came out to the sight and my supervisor also came. My rout was in the boonies so after all was said and done I and the kids sat on the bus for probably 35 or 40 min. only to be told to continue the rout and if I had any more trouble to call them again LOL the icing on the cake was where I pulled over was basically the last part of my rout that I had CB/cellphone service reception. I tell you what would solve the problem is if the kids were EXPECTED to act right on the bus and if the punishment for misbehaving was severe enough to denture further bad action. Schools have implemented the - PBIS Behavior intervention programs and they are nothing but a disaster and a joke.
@@aaronowen4425 Yeah, I know, it's difficult sometimes. But there are challenges in every profession. You just have to decide whether you have the hutzpah to stay with it or find another occupation. My time may come in the future, who knows.?
@@jameydenison2045 oh I definitely stayed with it - after 28 1/2 years I hung my hat up back in January - I had planned on trying to make 30 years but in the last 5 years it has snowballed into a job I would not recommend anyone going into. The schools WILL NOT back the drivers and there is no discipline for the kids. I will leave it with I highly recommend not going into the school field if a person is looking for a job. I shudder to see what it will be in another 5 - 10 years with the way things are progressing.
my mom was a driver for over 25 years. if the kids got out of hand or someone was picking on someone else or she suspected damage being done to the bus, she'd pull off the side of the road, look up in the mirror with her infamous one eyebrow up until it got quiet and then ask if everybody was ready to continue. kids loved her. parents loved her. I loved her......eyebrow and all.
What worries me is she didn’t check her rear view to make sure the kids were in a seat before taking off in a huff. Which brings me to the fact is that she drove off in a huff aka road rage.
As a school bus driver myself I came here thinking this was a difficult parent then the moment that driver started talking I knew what type of person it was. I feel bad for some kids on a couple routes where I work cuz the drivers are more like prison guards.
Who cares if the driver acts like a prison guard if your kids are safe? The school bus is NOT a pleasure cruise. It's priority is safe transportation. Your snot nosed brats can sit there and shut up. If they can't handle that then drive them yourself! SMH!
Interesting how everyone else in the comments is fanatically supporting the driver and attacking the kids. I must be one of the unlucky few who had bad bus drivers in my day. One was like her and would always favor the bad kids and it’s just like being in the school already. There is no escaping the torment of public school.
I'm a driver for JCPS (Louisville). A couple of years ago I was sent to substitute for a driver who was out sick. I spoke with the kids (Elementary school), told them I'd never driven this route before, I may ask for help, hoped I'd give them a smooth ride. "OK! Let's go home!" After a couple of stops, some kids were asking if I'd stay and drive them every day. "No, I'm pretty sure it's just for today." A few of them start chanting my name- "MIS-TER J! MIS-TER J!" Soon the whole bus is shouting- "MIS-TER J! MIS-TER J! I swear, I couldn't BELIEVE it! All I did was treat them the way I'd treat my grandkids! Next day, driver is back. I overheard her telling another driver- "Yeah, I'm back to driving the little "Demon Shits" again." There was NOTHING bad or wrong about her kids! She should NEVER have been a driver. She had only been on the job about 3 months, was gone about a month later. Good riddance! This job is a good fit for me, but it's NOT for everybody!
Not every driver is suited to be with children. The junior high and high school buses seem to always have a few bad apples ...v rough. 10 year olds and 11 year olds there are a few who punch ..bully and are down right mean . It only takes a few to create havoc. A nasty driver with attitude problems obviously doesnt want to be driving children. Bus monitors like hall monitors are very much needed.
@@lindamahrer7067 What's a bus monitor going to do? A bus monitor might help the driver keep his or her mind on the safe operation of the bus, because the driver can't do two things at once!
@@stanleydavison8428 Have you ever worked in education ? Outside activities and bus trips as well. Actually, if two adults are on board a driver and teacher. All that is necessary is to stand ..walk over and tell the individuals to settle down. It is a term called REDIRECTING and it is most effective. Elementary level is rarely a serious problem...Junior High and High School the youth realize with another adult there will be consequence. For the most part they are settled.
Years ago, not being sure if the driver was at fault or my child, I very kindly offered to sit on the bus next to my child for a week. Both my child and the bus driver stopped complaining. 😄
My mom did this if my teacher reported I was talking too much. (I’m now 50 years old and that’s the worst thing I ever did). My mother didn’t say anything nasty to the teacher. She just quietly sat in the back of the classroom. I stopped talking out of turn. 😊
That's how adults supposed to handle situations! The mom in this video is an idiotic narcissist it seems.. 😌 provoking & accusing & filming the driver while still letting her children get on the bus.. 🤦♀️🤦♂️
The majority of schools already have that. Apparently all that tax money used to add the technology to the buses was a waste, bc the only time they seem to get reviewed is when something terrible happens that is obvious to all, like a wreck. These routes need to be monitored routinely and I guarantee you there’d be plenty of parent volunteers ready to review them.
@@povertylevelphilanthropy1524 how is it wasted? Of course it's helpful when you need to see the situation to determine who's right or wrong, who's lying or telling the truth.. why the fk do you have the need to monitor everything when there's no disputes? Are u a fking STALKER? 😮
@@povertylevelphilanthropy1524 nope. Parents hate to volunteer for anything: making copies day, help with selling ice cream, chaperoning etc now imagine pulling tapes everyday for no reason out of 700+ buses for 2 or 3 routes AM/PM. Im a bus driver and is not that easy. That mom just need to address the issue directly to school and transportation, the tape will show what happened and if driver is at fault. Some old buses (at least on my area) dont have mics to talk to kids so some might yell to be listened by kids on the back. My bus has a mic and I easily talk to my kids. I know all my kids names, they sit on assigned seat and i encourage well behavior. Some kids management classes are a plus for all bus drivers.
I'm a driver of 18 years. We NEVER speak to parents like that even if we think we're in the right. In a scenario like this, I would have reassured the parent that I will be sure that their children are treated fairly and with the utmost care. Parents are your allies when you need help with discipline should it become necessary. This attitude not only undermines that trust but also could make you the target of tighter scrutiny by the employer. You could be undermining your own job security, This driver needs that scrutiny.
@Roundabout Way I understand how you feel. As much as one might sympathize with the driver, it's the training and discipline of each driver that sets the standard for everything else that takes place on the bus. It is paramount to maintain respect between the driver and the parents. Being a disciplined driver is what separates the professionals from the amateurs and the employed from the unemployed. Cheers.
@Roundabout Way After driving for 18 years I've seen a lot. My comments have been about staying calm and professional. Parents usually come around and ultimately respect that professionalism and courtesy. Cooler heads do prevail. I know there are problems with discipline in many schools. I've had to stand my ground with the administration in my district and threatened to quit before. Fortunately, my concerns were addressed and things worked out to my satisfaction. Schools in the larger cities seem to have the worst problems. I serve in a small town and things are at least somewhat different here. It's sad that politics has such a large role in education, especially in the area of discipline. I hope and pray that things go well for you. Blessings.
@Roundabout Way I've been thinking about what you have been saying today. I believe I have been responding and not really hearing the anguish and stress you have been trying to express. I apologize. I forget that not every teacher or member of the support staff has it as good as some others. You're correct, there are definitely problems in today's educational system. You and I are among many who see the problems and know what is lacking. Trying to get changes made is very difficult and at times seems impossible. Sometimes we need someone to listen to us and not have them be combative or judgmental. I think I came across as that at least a bit. All I can say is hang in there. I wish you the best and hope things get better. Thank you for serving.
@Roundabout Way FACTS! That "parent" should RESPECT the driver as another ADULT. Who's she screaming at? She's not talking to a child. A RESPECTFUL approach may have elicited a respectful RESPONSE. You get back what you give out! Apparently, she does not discipline those kids at home and doesn't want anyone else to discipline them--including teachers. She'll get hers one day as they get older.
I'm a school bus driver in Massachusetts. Parents talk a lot about safety, but these people are the worst drivers on the school grounds. They allow their small kids to hang out windows, the sunroof, run around while mom is on the phone, and another parent is upset because the car infront of her stopped for the flashing red lights on the school bus. Mom's are the absolute worst.
I saw the video and the way she reacted to the mom yelling at her kids led me to believe that she just did it because she’s a figure of authority and picked on little kids. I had this one bus driver who would pick on special needs kids including myself and got to keep his job. If a young child is doing something they aren’t supposed to on the bus there are better ways to handle it
Yes, the driver was wrong to react that way, I agree. There are 2 sides to every story and there are video cameras on the bus ask to see me if, you might be surprised at what some of “these kids” do. In fact, you’d be shocked.
@@julierohr2920 ah yes, 3 random little kids are causing so much havoc that the bus driver has to act like that. they’re KIDS. they aren’t just gonna be mature mini adults. don’t take a job involving kids if you have a short temper, it’s not that hard of a concept to understand
I disagree. I see an adult who is treated like garbage daily and has probably tried getting help with unruly kids and then a rude mom running up with a camera accosting her as an abuser and she snapped.
@@ILOVEFRIES-q2y There are many kids on that bus the mom failed to understand maybe are causing a problem. And her kids are too soft to understand that getting grouped yelled at is often the only way for an adult to control a situation and think it is personal. "Bus driver yelling at me" Mom failed to do any homework on the situation and ran up with accusations. Bogus and rude.
@@danielberg7644 Teachers teach and so do bus drivers. Bus drivers run a tight ship and it's their responsibility as well as the schools to teach students bus safety rules. Students violating the rules will be disciplined accordingly, which can lead to losing bus riding privileges either temporarily or permanently.
Agree. Numbers of them don't even respect their teachers these days, left alone bus drivers or janitors, lunch ladies.. 😌 it takes only 1 bad kid to drive the situations out of hand!
Nobody owes district employees anything. If you don’t like it, vote to abolish all schools and every person can get back all the tax dollars they spend “educating” kids.
@@jacksonrelaxin3425 you're such a bad narcissist, a potential harmful LONER, who screams evry where every time: "it's ALL ABOUT ME & MY FEW TAX DOLLARS blah blah blah.." 😌 Pathetic! I'm glad you dont have company or kids, or else they'd be miserable living with such a psychopathic narcissist! Your employer should be alerted as well!
I am a bus driver and the only reason I would yell at the kids would be if they are distracting to me or ignore my rules. Some children disregard authority because they think that the driver can’t do anything about it. Drivers priority is to keep the children safe.
Well you see... School bus drivers kind of have to talk that way normally and they get their voices blown out when they are on those really crappy elementary routes. They normally have to keep their voices above all the soul piercing screaming, yelling, shouting, kids crying out as if they've just gotten hit by a truck and are dying, horse playing, having to find a safe location to park to break up fights because you dont feel like its safe to drive a school bus legally, you don't have a monitor to quiet the chaos, AND you also have to kinda wonder if that job is worth doing, and why there is such a shortage of school bus drivers to begin with.
It doesn't give the school bus driver to act unprofessional towards their students the bus driver should handle it in a nice way and write up the student who breaks the rules the bus driver needs to set an example on how kids to behave not the other around but on the other I saw the driver flip off the mom not professional behavior ok .
@@acethedriver2895 lol I spoke nicely to my student and didn’t even yell at them. But either way ended up being called a bitch by them. Them acting up on the bus. Bringing their friends on the bus. School doesn’t do anything. Oh well. Now the only thing you can do to show authority is yelling.
I drive a school bus. The driver was very nasty, rude and unprofessional. Now, I will say..I yell. However that is bc of the engine as well as 40+ children screaming and its so ppl can hear me speaking too. NEVER IN A MEAN/RUDE WAY, NEVER. It is very important for all passengers (I carry adults as well) to listen to the driver. I personally do not like to be recorded, I can't record you.. however I keep great communication w my passengers as well as their parents and school officials! We/The drivers are not ALWAYS wrong! Some parents may not have gone through the training as I have. And please stop for school buses when you see yellow lights..IT COULD BE YOUR CHILD GETTING ON OR OFF!
You say- "We/The drivers are not ALWAYS wrong!" I'm a driver, too. You obviously have forgotten the 2 PRIMARY rules about bus drivers & our bosses. RULE #1- "When something bad happens, It is ALWAYS the driver's fault!" RULE #2- "When something bad happens, and there is IRON CLAD PROOF it wasn't due to the driver, see rule #1."
Being a school bus driver is very hard job and not to be taken lightly. I will gladly listen to any concern a parent has about me or the bus. As a bus driver I think to how I was as a child riding the bus everyday and how I felt. I apply that to how I deal with the children on my bus and it helps. But I also show these children that their safety, well being and get the safely to school and home to their parents everyday is my number one priority when they are on my bus. This really helps me with the more energetic elementary school children.
I’m a bus driver now. And I always end up yelling because there are so many kids that walking around my bus. Or start doing other things. I mean you can’t help it. Either that or they walk all over you. Sometimes the school doesn’t do anything either.
I went to kindergarten in 1971. We had tough bus drivers back then who did not take crap but they were not inappropriate or cruel. I remember my first bus driver yelling at this kid named Karl who was always standing up every day. She’d be driving down the road and she’d see Karl in the rear view mirror and she’d yell, “Sit down, Karl!” She never denigrated or scared the kids. Our other bus driver was a vet with a buzz cut. He actually died driving the school bus. He had an unexpected heart attack but was able to pull over. Our bus drivers had our respect and they didn’t let things go nuts, but we weren’t expected to sit with our hands in our laps and say nothing. My kids are grown now but had an issue with our kids’ elementary school bus driver. Our neighborhood kids were picked up in a church parking lot behind my house due to heavy traffic. I would stand in my backyard or kitchen and watch them. If the bus driver had called the school and gotten a message to us parents saying he wanted the kids lined up when he got there I would have made sure they did it. They’d see him come from the far side of the lot abd they’d run and line up. I never saw him waiting. One cold winter day they weren’t lined up, so he cursed them and shut the door in their faces and drove away, leaving them in the parking lot. I and one other parent who just happened to be the only parents who hadn’t left for work, had to load up all the kids whose parents had no idea they had been left (the elementary school kids didn’t have cell phones or a way to contact parents) and take them to school. I called the bus barn and they talked to the driver and they justified him leaving kids behind because they weren’t lined up. I was so mad because they hadn’t communicated it to any parent that there was a problem so we could deal with it. What if no parents were home and all the kids were locked out of their houses? I found it strange they would expect that kind of discipline yet they had allowed my kindergarten age daughter to be bullied and hit on the bus and they wouldn’t kick the bully off the bus so we had to take her off until the kid went to middle school. I was the kind of parent who made my kids take responsibility and I wasn’t a complainer. I had 6 kids ride the bus and the two times I had serious problems the supervisors sided with the driver despite the driver leaving kids which is nuts! It’s that old adage two wrongs don’t make a right. And the bus driver was an adult with a responsibility that he abdicated without any warning to parents or students. Some of those kids were scared and crying because they didn’t know how they would get to school or what they’d do until I stepped in with comfort and help.
I could only make it yelling at Karl. Lol There is something you must understand. Kids today are so soft that even yelling "Sit down Rainbow!" would cause them to cry and accuse the driver of abuse and moms accosting with TikTok.
@@C.Church True. I’ve heard the schools in some states can’t even kick out the violent kids because the parents come to the school and make a fuss. Teachers and bus drivers are getting assaulted everyday because kids know their parents will let them get away with it. I saw a video of a girl and her mom who attacked a school bus driver. The mom was waiting at the stop after school and jumped on the bus. I assume she had to wait until the afternoon because she couldn’t be bothered to roll on out of bed. I would love to go back to the days when the worst thing that happened on the bus was good old Karl standing up. I look back and we all thought Karl was the naughtiest boy in class and on the bus, and he was, but he was really very tame, just a bit hyper and had trouble sitting still. There are a lot of things that have changed since the 70’s and I’m sure several of them have had a direct result on the way children behave or should I say misbehave.
I was a kid on a bus. I remember how the kids were. I'm sure they are no different. In fact, a kid was allegedly raped on a bus recently. You want the bus driver to stop yelling at your kids? Teach them to stop behaving like animals. My brother became a bus driver in the city of Buffalo.. On the second day, he told a kid that he didnt behave, he'd be banned from the bus. On the third day, the father came to the bus and threatened to kill my brother. There was no forth day. The kids and parents are worse than animals.
There should be cameras on all buses that can be viewed by anyone anytime. If any bus driver misbehaves, he/she should be held accountable; if a child misbehaves, he/she and their parents should be held accountable.
My bus driver was the sweetest lady ever! She went to our church, she knew my parents well. My sisters and I just loved Mrs. Hunsucker! I'm 51 years old and I still remember her name.❤ This bus driver in the video did not hesitate to yell at a parent, so of course she yelled at the children when parents weren't around. It sounds like her children were intimidated and scared of the driver. I'm glad the district removed the grumpy lady off her children's bus route.
Most bus drivers are chill af. There's always some bad apples, just like any other professions like police, teachers, doctors.. But for 99% of the time, if u give them respect before hands, they won't make it hard for you, unless you're soliciting for favors..
I rode on several school buses in the 1980s in alachua county and other than dealing with the stress of other drivers on the road the bus drivers were always cool and fun to the kids
Do you know how terrible the kids are on the bus!!? They keep yelling, arguing, and standing, and they call the drivers horrible names. The driver is supposed to do her job while keeping our kids safe! So the least we could do is teach our kids to behave on the bus, and not disturb the driver instead of telling the driver not to yell!!!! Parents are so stupid these days that they don't teach the kids to be respectful. They only teach them how to rebel 🙄
if your response to that is defensive then you are clearly yelling at the kids. i mean you just yelled at the mom. someone who DOSENT abuse children would say "why would you get that idea?" or "i will raise my voice appropriately when the children are disruptive". not "YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH".
I'm a bus driver for over 5 years. Like any vocation, there are some drivers that are not great at student management. That said, if you haven't driven a school bus, especially these days, I think you would be shocked at the amount of bad behavior and verbal abuse from the kids, and some of the parents as well. If any of you have driven a car with a few kids being loud, physically bouncing around, NOT wearing seatbelts and you're driving in heavy traffic, you know how stressful that can be. Now, increase that number to 50+ kids in a 40' bus and do it every day. The response from this one driver was not good, yet, the way the mother approached the driver was inflammatory too. Remember the ol' saying about not judging someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. Maybe this Mom should become a bus driver, we're in very short supply all across this nation. I wonder why??
Drivers have to yell to be heard. Buses are noisey, especially with 20 kids all talking and laughing at the same time. Bus drivers should call out names if they know who's causing a ruckus. But since they can't drive while looking in the rvm, they chastise the entire group. The rules are to sit quietly in your seat. Whisper-talk only. No rough play. Parents driving with screaming kids in the back seat should know how frustrating it would be trying to drive a bus full of kids, all fighting, yelling, and throwing things. If her kids didn't do anything, they shouldn't feel upset. If they got yelled at, then maybe they were breaking rules. I tell my kids to talk to the principal or VP first. Then, if that doesn't work, I will talk to the principal.
Edit: thoroughly read this post before you misinterpret it. I won’t respond to trolls! Now, HS kids or MS kids, maybe if they’re boarding rowdy. ES kid yelling is only for those moments when the bus gets rowdy rowdy. In which, you show the highest level of concern that could impair the driver. That driver messed up. Key sentence, that driver messed up! Note: some buses used to have cameras. Most of time, when the video is shown and we display the reason why we had to yell. Parents would understand; safety is jeopardized when a bus gets rowdy. This only applies if kids are standing up, yelling and throwing things. Heavy note: IF YOUR CHILD IS BAD! STOP TAKING UP FOR YOUR BAD CHILD. PARENT YOUR CHILD AND STOP BEING THEIR FRIEND! And every year, there’s always that one parent who had PTSD from being a bad child and cannot stand authority. See your good and respectful self in that child, not your bad side. Correct yourself, before we have to!
I need more information.If kids are being yelled at it's probably because they're doing something unsafe.Did the parent actually have a conversation with the driver or just the snarky comment.I wouldn't be too happy either.
Thanks to this video, the mother of the two kids who used to take the school bus decided to drive her kids to and from school after the now fired school bus driver got into a verbal altercation with the mom.
I just want to relate, I am a school bus driver, and her responce to that parent was wrong, and she should be disciplined for it, but on the other side of the issue, the mother that she wanted her to show respect to her kids, now if her kids show respect to the bus driver, then sure she should show respect back, but there are a lot of students out there that have not been taught by their parents to respect the ones in authority, and they're the ones that make the situation difficult, and frustrate the drivers.
Correct on the first part. No evidence the children misbehaved. Probably to afraid by this point to be honest. Seems like they are experiencing trauma. Not just the occassional everyone lumped together be quiet or sit down. Driver's can be power trip bullies also. Can't handle the job get on and find another.
I had one pull up behind me this morning. While droppingmine off at the school. He laid on his horn and was very close to my bumper. Literally trying to force me out. I complained to transportation. Got a call back. The lady said he told her what happend. They are trying to justify his actions of direspect. I will not accept their response and move formal with my complaint. He also made comments to my child. Stating Im not allowed to be in front of the school. Well its 640 am and no one else was there. He isnt the boss and my taxes pay his salary! Tired of society thinking its ok to be rude and disrespectful any time they like. Unnacceptable.
This "parent," and I'm using the term very loosely, needs to CHASTISE her KIDS and NOT another ADULT. She needs to find out what her kids are doing and correct them. It sounds like she wants to ignore what they are doing like she does when they are AT HOME. Well, they are NOT at home, and the bus driver is responsible for more than just HER kids. The bus driver needs order and discipline to operate the bus SAFELY. She does NOT need any distractions from kids who don't know how to act. Additionally, their bad behavior is being REINFORCED because this "parent" is supporting them when they are WRONG. This is a good example of why we don't have enough qualified teachers or bus drivers. They have to take too much ABUSE from BAD parents, SORRY administrators, and BAD kids. The bus driver's job is to transport the children SAFELY, not RAISE somebody's kids. I PERSONALLY know a school bus driver. He stated that when he QUIT, it was the BEST thing that had happened to him!🧐
The bus driver’s response to the mother is very telling. I’m convinced that the driver definitely yelled at the children. Glad she was taken off the route
There is a whole list of concerns I have with this video about the driver but I also am not letting the mother off Scott free. The comment was made in a backhanded passive aggressive tone that was meant to push the drivers buttons. If you were being sincere, why would you open a conversation that she says she only wanted to get resolved with “please don’t yell at my kids today” and of all things didn’t have the decency to pull the kids off the bus when she realized the bus driver started reacting like a total lunatic. Mom wanted to argue and she picked a fight with a bad news bear and got told off. Now the driver needs to be held accountable for that rapid door slam and drive off without knowing if the kids were seated or checking her mirrors.
I had a school bus driver like that when I was in elementary school. She would yell at the students to sit down and my mother asked her not to yell at the students on the school bus. The bus driver then told me not to have my mom step on her bus again. Good news I told my mother what the bus driver said and she called the transportation office and wanted the bus driver removed from the route just for scaring the creepers out of me. You’re driving high schoolers then, middle schoolers, and finally, elementary schoolers. Some students can be rowdy on the school bus but, you have to remain calm at all times.
You all saying it must be because kids behave badly on buses have no idea if that’s the situation here and plus, if this crazy bus driver is willing to act like that towards a mom who’s recording her, just imagine how she treats those kids when no one is watching?? Oh hell no! If a bus driver spoke to me like that, she would no longer be able to drive anything, ever again.
Poor kids, this seems like something simple, but an adult talking to you like that really affects your self steem and changes your entire day, I experienced that as a child and it was just awful, the only thing you want to do at moments like these is never see that person again but these kids have to see her every day
I'm sure this is not the whole story..... SMH if the bus driver yells at the kids every day I'm sure them little angels are doing something wrong! How to correct this problem is to have every bus with an bus Aid or just drive them angels to school yourself. Ikr
These public school district drivers are employees of the State. You'd best believe they shouldn't get away with screaming at little children and frightening them like that. Parents need to contact the School District, and it's Dept. of Transportation, and lodge complaint. They need to document every time their little ones come home crying, and they need to file lawsuits against the District for verbal and emotional abuse of a child.
to be honest the mom is the one instigating this incident. if you have a problem, be a grownup about it and dont pick petty fights in front of your kids. just got to the school about it. if you're kids are constantly getting yelled out, they're probably misbehaving......
What if she doesn't have a car or has to go to work really early and dosen't have the time to take her children to school ? There are so many parents that don't have the privilege to drive their kids to school.
@@xzx8614 it doesn't license the school bus driver to behave in a unprofessional way the bus driver should handle it professionally if the kids doesn't listen to what the driver tells them then write them up then the principal will handle the kid in a professional way like suspend them from the bus point said .
If she had approached the bus driver politely and said “excuse me can I talk to you for a second”, and explain “my kids are coming home crying and I just want to know if they are doing something wrong or if you know what’s going on” rather than start out by yelling and demanding “don’t yell at my children” when they don’t even know the facts. Her kids could be causing trouble possibly. Figure out the facts. This video has more questions then answers.
She was courteous enough to say please, and she specifically did not want to make a big thing about it, which is why she din't ask her to have a conversation about it. It was the first time, the driver could have said ok.
It's a big responsibility driving a bus. And I'm not taking up for the bus driver. However, they need to pay attention to the road while driving as well as make sure the children stay in their seats to remain safe. School districts should either install seatbelts busses or hire monitors to ride each bus to prevent distraction of the driver. Just my opinion 🤷
how is she paying attention to the road if she's yelling at the children there's no way her attention can be on the road and at the end of the day it's mental abuse and it's not right and if she doesn't like her profession and she should find another one
@@billyjoeleader7064 how about the parents should make the kids mind. How about when them kids heard they momma telling the bus driver not to yell @ her kids today. Them kids was like yes .

Our bus driver would pull over & yell/ get on us & we deserved every bit of it. & when our parents found out we got more then yelled @ . Which we also deserved.

@@hanna.bell.lecter do we know that she wasn't? No, so stop trying to be special. Also, you aren't funny in the slightest, shit like this happens and you are ignorant to think otherwise
I just stopped being a school bus driver after 17 years. You dont have to yell at the kids..you need to some how get their attention so you may talk to them! Let them know the seriousness of a disruptive bus and how it puts everyone on that bus in danger everytime the driver has to pull her attention from driving! As for the parent..that bus driver was rude..make relationships with the parents so that its a team effort in safety! Communication is key!
Nah man our teachers pulled us by the ears, hit us with yardsticks. You know why? Because we needed it! Parents bubble wrapping their kids, WOW they are gonna get hit with reality as soon as they get out of P school
I wouldn't put my kids on the bus if it is such an issue, until the issue was resolved. Not to mention the fact that she kinda poked the bear with the comment please don't yell at my kid sas soon as the doors open. You can't mess with crazy, but you can avoid it.
Actually she told her/everyone to have a good day. Then asked her not to yell at her kids. She wasn't disrespectful ans had already tried to address the issue with transportation who failed her. She should have met with the school board maybe. But she did nothing wrong. That driver has issues!
I think parents today have to realize that their kids are part of a society that doesn't have to follow their rules with their kids . As long as no one is breaking the law people do not have to be your brand of nice to your children. Not wanting a bus driver to holler is silly. a bus is noisy and the bus driver can't leave her seat
I think adults today have to realize that they are part of a society where children's feelings are valued more than theirs are, because adults should be able to act with the maturity that comes with adulthood while children can't be expected to.
Nah I’d be taking my kids to school that day and talking to the principal to get her boss to the school so she’d get fired immediately for that behavior

I don’t know why she continued to send her kids on that bus.

YES!
nah. kids are little shits on the bus. sometimes they need to be yelled at.
Knew a bus driver once who would take his newspaper with him and when the kids got too rowdy, he would pull over in a safe spot, read his paper, and tell the kids that when they settled down enough for him to drive safely he would continue his drive to get them home. The rest of the kids who wanted to get home and have their snacks and get to play used peer pressure to get the bad kids to stop. It worked like a charm, nobody wanted to be "that kid" who held up the bus.
that doesn't work anymore because the bus driver will actually get in trouble for encouraging bullying.
@@aaronowen4425 Our district actually expects the driver to pull over and stop if things are getting out of hand on the bus. If things get too unruly, law enforcement can be requested over the radio as well. We have had students removed by school personnel, police officers or Sheriffs Deputies over the years. Parents usually understand delays because they want their kids to be safe on the bus.
@@jameydenison2045 Oh definitely, The bus driver can pull the bus over and sit on the side of the road (on their own time of course, if they have a second job to get to that becomes problematic) I had problems with a kid that was a shuttle kid, pulled over - the police were called, also the principle of the school the kid went to came out to the sight and my supervisor also came. My rout was in the boonies so after all was said and done I and the kids sat on the bus for probably 35 or 40 min. only to be told to continue the rout and if I had any more trouble to call them again LOL the icing on the cake was where I pulled over was basically the last part of my rout that I had CB/cellphone service reception. I tell you what would solve the problem is if the kids were EXPECTED to act right on the bus and if the punishment for misbehaving was severe enough to denture further bad action. Schools have implemented the - PBIS Behavior intervention programs and they are nothing but a disaster and a joke.
@@aaronowen4425 Yeah, I know, it's difficult sometimes. But there are challenges in every profession. You just have to decide whether you have the hutzpah to stay with it or find another occupation. My time may come in the future, who knows.?

The schools WILL NOT back the drivers and there is no discipline for the kids. I will leave it with I highly recommend not going into the school field if a person is looking for a job. I shudder to see what it will be in another 5 - 10 years with the way things are progressing.

As a school bus driver myself I came here thinking this was a difficult parent then the moment that driver started talking I knew what type of person it was. I feel bad for some kids on a couple routes where I work cuz the drivers are more like prison guards.
I also thought the mom was going to be wrong, but after this response, the bus driver is probably a bully.
Who cares if the driver acts like a prison guard if your kids are safe? The school bus is NOT a pleasure cruise. It's priority is safe transportation. Your snot nosed brats can sit there and shut up. If they can't handle that then drive them yourself! SMH!
you must not get the little shits on your bus.
Interesting how everyone else in the comments is fanatically supporting the driver and attacking the kids. I must be one of the unlucky few who had bad bus drivers in my day. One was like her and would always favor the bad kids and it’s just like being in the school already. There is no escaping the torment of public school.
I'm a driver for JCPS (Louisville). A couple of years ago I was sent to substitute for a driver who was out sick. I spoke with the kids (Elementary school), told them I'd never driven this route before, I may ask for help, hoped I'd give them a smooth ride. "OK! Let's go home!" After a couple of stops, some kids were asking if I'd stay and drive them every day. "No, I'm pretty sure it's just for today." A few of them start chanting my name- "MIS-TER J! MIS-TER J!" Soon the whole bus is shouting- "MIS-TER J! MIS-TER J! I swear, I couldn't BELIEVE it! All I did was treat them the way I'd treat my grandkids!
Next day, driver is back. I overheard her telling another driver- "Yeah, I'm back to driving the little "Demon Shits" again."
There was NOTHING bad or wrong about her kids! She should NEVER have been a driver. She had only been on the job about 3 months, was gone about a month later. Good riddance!
This job is a good fit for me, but it's NOT for everybody!
Mister J!!! MISTER J!!!! LOVE IT!!!❤
@@rockon8174 Thanks!!
Not every driver is suited to be with children. The junior high and high school buses seem to always have a few bad apples ...v rough. 10 year olds and 11 year olds there are a few who punch ..bully and are down right mean . It only takes a few to create havoc. A nasty driver with attitude problems obviously doesnt want to be driving children. Bus monitors like hall monitors are very much needed.
@@lindamahrer7067 What's a bus monitor going to do? A bus monitor might help the driver keep his or her mind on the safe operation of the bus, because the driver can't do two things at once!
@@stanleydavison8428 Have you ever worked in education ? Outside activities and bus trips as well. Actually, if two adults are on board a driver and teacher. All that is necessary is to stand ..walk over and tell the individuals to settle down. It is a term called REDIRECTING and it is most effective. Elementary level is rarely a serious problem...Junior High and High School the youth realize with another adult
there will be consequence. For the most part they are settled.
Years ago, not being sure if the driver was at fault or my child, I very kindly offered to sit on the bus next to my child for a week. Both my child and the bus driver stopped complaining. 😄
My mom did this if my teacher reported I was talking too much. (I’m now 50 years old and that’s the worst thing I ever did). My mother didn’t say anything nasty to the teacher. She just quietly sat in the back of the classroom. I stopped talking out of turn. 😊

There is…
The majority of schools already have that. Apparently all that tax money used to add the technology to the buses was a waste, bc the only time they seem to get reviewed is when something terrible happens that is obvious to all, like a wreck. These routes need to be monitored routinely and I guarantee you there’d be plenty of parent volunteers ready to review them.
@@povertylevelphilanthropy1524 how is it wasted? Of course it's helpful when you need to see the situation to determine who's right or wrong, who's lying or telling the truth.. why the fk do you have the need to monitor everything when there's no disputes? Are u a fking STALKER? 😮
@@povertylevelphilanthropy1524 nope.

Some old buses (at least on my area) dont have mics to talk to kids so some might yell to be listened by kids on the back. My bus has a mic and I easily talk to my kids. I know all my kids names, they sit on assigned seat and i encourage well behavior. Some kids management classes are a plus for all bus drivers.
@@sucredulce3572 your job only exists because of people with real jobs paying taxes.
I'm a driver of 18 years. We NEVER speak to parents like that even if we think we're in the right. In a scenario like this, I would have reassured the parent that I will be sure that their children are treated fairly and with the utmost care. Parents are your allies when you need help with discipline should it become necessary. This attitude not only undermines that trust but also could make you the target of tighter scrutiny by the employer. You could be undermining your own job security, This driver needs that scrutiny.
@Roundabout Way I understand how you feel. As much as one might sympathize with the driver, it's the training and discipline of each driver that sets the standard for everything else that takes place on the bus. It is paramount to maintain respect between the driver and the parents. Being a disciplined driver is what separates the professionals from the amateurs and the employed from the unemployed. Cheers.
@Roundabout Way After driving for 18 years I've seen a lot. My comments have been about staying calm and professional. Parents usually come around and ultimately respect that professionalism and courtesy. Cooler heads do prevail. I know there are problems with discipline in many schools. I've had to stand my ground with the administration in my district and threatened to quit before. Fortunately, my concerns were addressed and things worked out to my satisfaction. Schools in the larger cities seem to have the worst problems. I serve in a small town and things are at least somewhat different here. It's sad that politics has such a large role in education, especially in the area of discipline. I hope and pray that things go well for you. Blessings.
@Roundabout Way I've been thinking about what you have been saying today. I believe I have been responding and not really hearing the anguish and stress you have been trying to express. I apologize. I forget that not every teacher or member of the support staff has it as good as some others. You're correct, there are definitely problems in today's educational system. You and I are among many who see the problems and know what is lacking. Trying to get changes made is very difficult and at times seems impossible. Sometimes we need someone to listen to us and not have them be combative or judgmental. I think I came across as that at least a bit. All I can say is hang in there. I wish you the best and hope things get better. Thank you for serving.
@Roundabout Way FACTS! That "parent" should RESPECT the driver as another ADULT. Who's she screaming at? She's not talking to a child. A RESPECTFUL approach may have elicited a respectful RESPONSE. You get back what you give out! Apparently, she does not discipline those kids at home and doesn't want anyone else to discipline them--including teachers. She'll get hers one day as they get older.
Thing is parents are not disciplining children anymore.
I'm a school bus driver in Massachusetts. Parents talk a lot about safety, but these people are the worst drivers on the school grounds. They allow their small kids to hang out windows, the sunroof, run around while mom is on the phone, and another parent is upset because the car infront of her stopped for the flashing red lights on the school bus. Mom's are the absolute worst.
I'm sure her children are angels
NOT.
lol yeah the bus driver handled this horribly but I wouldn't be surprised if she believes every word her little angels tell her.
How dare you tell me not to yell at your kids lol
I saw the video and the way she reacted to the mom yelling at her kids led me to believe that she just did it because she’s a figure of authority and picked on little kids. I had this one bus driver who would pick on special needs kids including myself and got to keep his job. If a young child is doing something they aren’t supposed to on the bus there are better ways to handle it
Hopefully he was reported. Absolutely sickening what these drivers can do
Yes, the driver was wrong to react that way, I agree. There are 2 sides to every story and there are video cameras on the bus ask to see me if, you might be surprised at what some of “these kids” do. In fact, you’d be shocked.
@@julierohr2920 ah yes, 3 random little kids are causing so much havoc that the bus driver has to act like that.

I disagree. I see an adult who is treated like garbage daily and has probably tried getting help with unruly kids and then a rude mom running up with a camera accosting her as an abuser and she snapped.
@@ILOVEFRIES-q2y There are many kids on that bus the mom failed to understand maybe are causing a problem. And her kids are too soft to understand that getting grouped yelled at is often the only way for an adult to control a situation and think it is personal.

I’m sure with the hostile attitude she had with the mom, that plenty of yelling has gone on.
My bus driver was a retired Vietnam vet. Yeah, he would yell at us because we wouldn't sit down and shut up. Kids do not behave on the bus.
The golden rule would definitely apply here. Give respect, you get respect. Kids need to be politely reminded a thousand times.

Teachers and bus drivers are untouchable.
And they're some of the worst people
The parent should go drive a school bus and see how disrespectful the kids are to drivers.
The build up to this confrontation is omitted from the story.
I am a bus driver and the only reason I would yell at the kids would be if they are distracting to me or ignore my rules. Some children disregard authority because they think that the driver can’t do anything about it. Drivers priority is to keep the children safe.
The fog atmosphere in that bus driver video makes me think that the bus driver actually came from hell.
I would have never put my kids on the bus with someone that’s clearly aggressive
If the busdriver talks to the parent that way, imagine what those children hear.
Well you see... School bus drivers kind of have to talk that way normally and they get their voices blown out when they are on those really crappy elementary routes. They normally have to keep their voices above all the soul piercing screaming, yelling, shouting, kids crying out as if they've just gotten hit by a truck and are dying, horse playing, having to find a safe location to park to break up fights because you dont feel like its safe to drive a school bus legally, you don't have a monitor to quiet the chaos, AND you also have to kinda wonder if that job is worth doing, and why there is such a shortage of school bus drivers to begin with.
Even as a child i understood when the bus driver would yell and get after the kids not behaving. I never took it personal or offensive.
This sounds like the kind of driver who just hates her job and the kids she has to work with tbh 😂
It doesn't give the school bus driver to act unprofessional towards their students the bus driver should handle it in a nice way and write up the student who breaks the rules the bus driver needs to set an example on how kids to behave not the other around but on the other I saw the driver flip off the mom not professional behavior ok .

I drive a school bus. The driver was very nasty, rude and unprofessional. Now, I will say..I yell. However that is bc of the engine as well as 40+ children screaming and its so ppl can hear me speaking too. NEVER IN A MEAN/RUDE WAY, NEVER. It is very important for all passengers (I carry adults as well) to listen to the driver. I personally do not like to be recorded, I can't record you.. however I keep great communication w my passengers as well as their parents and school officials! We/The drivers are not ALWAYS wrong! Some parents may not have gone through the training as I have. And please stop for school buses when you see yellow lights..IT COULD BE YOUR CHILD GETTING ON OR OFF!
If anything being recorded should mean backing off but they tend to dig their own hole deeper
You say- "We/The drivers are not ALWAYS wrong!"
I'm a driver, too. You obviously have forgotten the 2 PRIMARY rules about bus drivers & our bosses.
RULE #1- "When something bad happens, It is ALWAYS the driver's fault!"
RULE #2- "When something bad happens, and there is IRON CLAD PROOF it wasn't due to the driver, see rule #1."
Being a school bus driver is very hard job and not to be taken lightly. I will gladly listen to any concern a parent has about me or the bus. As a bus driver I think to how I was as a child riding the bus everyday and how I felt. I apply that to how I deal with the children on my bus and it helps. But I also show these children that their safety, well being and get the safely to school and home to their parents everyday is my number one priority when they are on my bus. This really helps me with the more energetic elementary school children.
I’m a bus driver now. And I always end up yelling because there are so many kids that walking around my bus. Or start doing other things. I mean you can’t help it. Either that or they walk all over you. Sometimes the school doesn’t do anything either.
I went to kindergarten in 1971. We had tough bus drivers back then who did not take crap but they were not inappropriate or cruel. I remember my first bus driver yelling at this kid named Karl who was always standing up every day. She’d be driving down the road and she’d see Karl in the rear view mirror and she’d yell, “Sit down, Karl!” She never denigrated or scared the kids. Our other bus driver was a vet with a buzz cut. He actually died driving the school bus. He had an unexpected heart attack but was able to pull over. Our bus drivers had our respect and they didn’t let things go nuts, but we weren’t expected to sit with our hands in our laps and say nothing. My kids are grown now but had an issue with our kids’ elementary school bus driver. Our neighborhood kids were picked up in a church parking lot behind my house due to heavy traffic. I would stand in my backyard or kitchen and watch them. If the bus driver had called the school and gotten a message to us parents saying he wanted the kids lined up when he got there I would have made sure they did it. They’d see him come from the far side of the lot abd they’d run and line up. I never saw him waiting. One cold winter day they weren’t lined up, so he cursed them and shut the door in their faces and drove away, leaving them in the parking lot. I and one other parent who just happened to be the only parents who hadn’t left for work, had to load up all the kids whose parents had no idea they had been left (the elementary school kids didn’t have cell phones or a way to contact parents) and take them to school. I called the bus barn and they talked to the driver and they justified him leaving kids behind because they weren’t lined up. I was so mad because they hadn’t communicated it to any parent that there was a problem so we could deal with it. What if no parents were home and all the kids were locked out of their houses? I found it strange they would expect that kind of discipline yet they had allowed my kindergarten age daughter to be bullied and hit on the bus and they wouldn’t kick the bully off the bus so we had to take her off until the kid went to middle school. I was the kind of parent who made my kids take responsibility and I wasn’t a complainer. I had 6 kids ride the bus and the two times I had serious problems the supervisors sided with the driver despite the driver leaving kids which is nuts! It’s that old adage two wrongs don’t make a right. And the bus driver was an adult with a responsibility that he abdicated without any warning to parents or students. Some of those kids were scared and crying because they didn’t know how they would get to school or what they’d do until I stepped in with comfort and help.
Jeeus man
I could only make it yelling at Karl. Lol There is something you must understand. Kids today are so soft that even yelling "Sit down Rainbow!" would cause them to cry and accuse the driver of abuse and moms accosting with TikTok.
@@C.Church True. I’ve heard the schools in some states can’t even kick out the violent kids because the parents come to the school and make a fuss. Teachers and bus drivers are getting assaulted everyday because kids know their parents will let them get away with it. I saw a video of a girl and her mom who attacked a school bus driver. The mom was waiting at the stop after school and jumped on the bus. I assume she had to wait until the afternoon because she couldn’t be bothered to roll on out of bed. I would love to go back to the days when the worst thing that happened on the bus was good old Karl standing up. I look back and we all thought Karl was the naughtiest boy in class and on the bus, and he was, but he was really very tame, just a bit hyper and had trouble sitting still. There are a lot of things that have changed since the 70’s and I’m sure several of them have had a direct result on the way children behave or should I say misbehave.
Good Lord, I feel like I just read a novel. 🙄
What is it with you boomers and typing out novels?... you really think anyones gonna take the time to read all that?
It's been seen 30 million times and more. I think we're past the point of blurring her face.
Broke local news station afraid of lawsuit that would probably be dismissed.
I can’t believe that the bus driver gave the mom the middle finger.
I was a kid on a bus. I remember how the kids were. I'm sure they are no different. In fact, a kid was allegedly raped on a bus recently. You want the bus driver to stop yelling at your kids? Teach them to stop behaving like animals. My brother became a bus driver in the city of Buffalo.. On the second day, he told a kid that he didnt behave, he'd be banned from the bus. On the third day, the father came to the bus and threatened to kill my brother. There was no forth day. The kids and parents are worse than animals.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
But how do the kids behave on the bus? How much abuse has the bus driver endured to that point?
There should be cameras on all buses that can be viewed by anyone anytime. If any bus driver misbehaves, he/she should be held accountable; if a child misbehaves, he/she and their parents should be held accountable.
That would be extremely dangerous it would make it alot easier for predators to target kids if the footage could be veiwed by anyone.
My bus driver was the sweetest lady ever! She went to our church, she knew my parents well. My sisters and I just loved Mrs. Hunsucker! I'm 51 years old and I still remember her name.❤ This bus driver in the video did not hesitate to yell at a parent, so of course she yelled at the children when parents weren't around. It sounds like her children were intimidated and scared of the driver. I'm glad the district removed the grumpy lady off her children's bus route.
Most bus drivers are chill af. There's always some bad apples, just like any other professions like police, teachers, doctors.. But for 99% of the time, if u give them respect before hands, they won't make it hard for you, unless you're soliciting for favors..

That said, if you haven't driven a school bus, especially these days, I think you would be shocked at the amount of bad behavior and verbal abuse from the kids, and some of the parents as well. If any of you have driven a car with a few kids being loud, physically bouncing around, NOT wearing seatbelts and you're driving in heavy traffic, you know how stressful that can be. Now, increase that number to 50+ kids in a 40' bus and do it every day. The response from this one driver was not good, yet, the way the mother approached the driver was inflammatory too. Remember the ol' saying about not judging someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. Maybe this Mom should become a bus driver, we're in very short supply all across this nation. I wonder why??
WOW!! The driver even told the Mom to shut her mouth right in front of her kids.. yeah 100% she's definitely doing the same to the kids on the bus.
South park bus driver:
Yup
Funny, the first thing the bus driver does is yell. "I DON'T YELL AT YOUR KIDS!"
If them kids get on bus ...sit quietly why would she yell at them? Doesn't add up.
She yells at the kids u think she won't yell at u lol
Drivers have to yell to be heard. Buses are noisey, especially with 20 kids all talking and laughing at the same time. Bus drivers should call out names if they know who's causing a ruckus. But since they can't drive while looking in the rvm, they chastise the entire group. The rules are to sit quietly in your seat. Whisper-talk only. No rough play. Parents driving with screaming kids in the back seat should know how frustrating it would be trying to drive a bus full of kids, all fighting, yelling, and throwing things. If her kids didn't do anything, they shouldn't feel upset. If they got yelled at, then maybe they were breaking rules. I tell my kids to talk to the principal or VP first. Then, if that doesn't work, I will talk to the principal.
Wow. Lol. That bus driver showed her true colors right off the gate! 😂
Edit: thoroughly read this post before you misinterpret it. I won’t respond to trolls!
Now, HS kids or MS kids, maybe if they’re boarding rowdy. ES kid yelling is only for those moments when the bus gets rowdy rowdy. In which, you show the highest level of concern that could impair the driver. That driver messed up. Key sentence, that driver messed up!
Note: some buses used to have cameras. Most of time, when the video is shown and we display the reason why we had to yell. Parents would understand; safety is jeopardized when a bus gets rowdy. This only applies if kids are standing up, yelling and throwing things.
Heavy note: IF YOUR CHILD IS BAD! STOP TAKING UP FOR YOUR BAD CHILD. PARENT YOUR CHILD AND STOP BEING THEIR FRIEND! And every year, there’s always that one parent who had PTSD from being a bad child and cannot stand authority. See your good and respectful self in that child, not your bad side. Correct yourself, before we have to!
Unless the kids were actually engaging in misconduct there was no reason for her to yell at the kids.
I need more information.If kids are being yelled at it's probably because they're doing something unsafe.Did the parent actually have a conversation with the driver or just the snarky comment.I wouldn't be too happy either.
Immediately yelling: “I don’t yell at your kids!!!!!!!!!!”
Solve the issue by driving your own
Kids to school in your own car
Thanks to this video, the mother of the two kids who used to take the school bus decided to drive her kids to and from school after the now fired school bus driver got into a verbal altercation with the mom.
Mom, take the bus driver's job for a few years and see how you do!
Real life Ms. Crabtree from South Park 😂
I just want to relate, I am a school bus driver, and her responce to that parent was wrong, and she should be disciplined for it, but on the other side of the issue, the mother that she wanted her to show respect to her kids, now if her kids show respect to the bus driver, then sure she should show respect back, but there are a lot of students out there that have not been taught by their parents to respect the ones in authority, and they're the ones that make the situation difficult, and frustrate the drivers.
Correct on the first part. No evidence the children misbehaved. Probably to afraid by this point to be honest. Seems like they are experiencing trauma. Not just the occassional everyone lumped together be quiet or sit down. Driver's can be power trip bullies also. Can't handle the job get on and find another.
I had one pull up behind me this morning. While droppingmine off at the school. He laid on his horn and was very close to my bumper. Literally trying to force me out. I complained to transportation. Got a call back. The lady said he told her what happend. They are trying to justify his actions of direspect. I will not accept their response and move formal with my complaint. He also made comments to my child. Stating Im not allowed to be in front of the school. Well its 640 am and no one else was there. He isnt the boss and my taxes pay his salary! Tired of society thinking its ok to be rude and disrespectful any time they like. Unnacceptable.
This "parent," and I'm using the term very loosely, needs to CHASTISE her KIDS and NOT another ADULT. She needs to find out what her kids are doing and correct them. It sounds like she wants to ignore what they are doing like she does when they are AT HOME. Well, they are NOT at home, and the bus driver is responsible for more than just HER kids. The bus driver needs order and discipline to operate the bus SAFELY. She does NOT need any distractions from kids who don't know how to act. Additionally, their bad behavior is being REINFORCED because this "parent" is supporting them when they are WRONG. This is a good example of why we don't have enough qualified teachers or bus drivers. They have to take too much ABUSE from BAD parents, SORRY administrators, and BAD kids. The bus driver's job is to transport the children SAFELY, not RAISE somebody's kids. I PERSONALLY know a school bus driver. He stated that when he QUIT, it was the BEST thing that had happened to him!🧐
BRO MY BUS DRIVER SWEARS AT US AND GRABS US BY OUR SHIRTS AND SCREAMS AT US HE IS LIKE A 62-YEAR-OLD MAN SAY ING SIT DOWN! SCREAMING IT
She was driving so fast she almost ran over the kids waiting to be picked up.
Those kids need a better school bus driver.
The bus driver’s response to the mother is very telling. I’m convinced that the driver definitely yelled at the children. Glad she was taken off the route
Driver: i’m not yelling, this is my normal tone of voice!
There is a whole list of concerns I have with this video about the driver but I also am not letting the mother off Scott free. The comment was made in a backhanded passive aggressive tone that was meant to push the drivers buttons. If you were being sincere, why would you open a conversation that she says she only wanted to get resolved with “please don’t yell at my kids today” and of all things didn’t have the decency to pull the kids off the bus when she realized the bus driver started reacting like a total lunatic.
Mom wanted to argue and she picked a fight with a bad news bear and got told off. Now the driver needs to be held accountable for that rapid door slam and drive off without knowing if the kids were seated or checking her mirrors.
Exactly!!!!
I had a school bus driver like that when I was in elementary school. She would yell at the students to sit down and my mother asked her not to yell at the students on the school bus. The bus driver then told me not to have my mom step on her bus again. Good news I told my mother what the bus driver said and she called the transportation office and wanted the bus driver removed from the route just for scaring the creepers out of me. You’re driving high schoolers then, middle schoolers, and finally, elementary schoolers. Some students can be rowdy on the school bus but, you have to remain calm at all times.
Wow! South Parks Ms. Crabtree is a real person!
😂 i knew she sounded familiar 😂
If that is how she talks to an adult, you know damn well she's yelling at those kids.
If I ever get yelled at school, my mom will be liek what did you do?
You all saying it must be because kids behave badly on buses have no idea if that’s the situation here and plus, if this crazy bus driver is willing to act like that towards a mom who’s recording her, just imagine how she treats those kids when no one is watching?? Oh hell no! If a bus driver spoke to me like that, she would no longer be able to drive anything, ever again.
Poor kids, this seems like something simple, but an adult talking to you like that really affects your self steem and changes your entire day, I experienced that as a child and it was just awful, the only thing you want to do at moments like these is never see that person again but these kids have to see her every day
I'm sure this is not the whole story..... SMH if the bus driver yells at the kids every day I'm sure them little angels are doing something wrong! How to correct this problem is to have every bus with an bus Aid or just drive them angels to school yourself. Ikr
These public school district drivers are employees of the State. You'd best believe they shouldn't get away with screaming at little children and frightening them like that. Parents need to contact the School District, and it's Dept. of Transportation, and lodge complaint. They need to document every time their little ones come home crying, and they need to file lawsuits against the District for verbal and emotional abuse of a child.
to be honest the mom is the one instigating this incident. if you have a problem, be a grownup about it and dont pick petty fights in front of your kids. just got to the school about it. if you're kids are constantly getting yelled out, they're probably misbehaving......
The way she immediately started screaming was pretty telling that's how she reacts to anything even minor that upsets her.
The bus driver sounds like she was released from the trailer park.🤔😆😆😆
Actually she sounds like the school bus driver from south park
Teach your kids how to behaved. Imagine dealing with 30 plus kids 🙄 if she can't yell at your kids then take your own kids to school.
What if she doesn't have a car or has to go to work really early and dosen't have the time to take her children to school ? There are so many parents that don't have the privilege to drive their kids to school.
@@elijahharvey01
Understand but if her kids are getting yelled at then they're misbehaving.
@@xzx8614 oh
@@xzx8614 it doesn't license the school bus driver to behave in a unprofessional way the bus driver should handle it professionally if the kids doesn't listen to what the driver tells them then write them up then the principal will handle the kid in a professional way like suspend them from the bus point said .
@@acethedriver2895 It's best to be done as the last resort, otherwise they may not take you seriously.
"I don't yell at your kids!" *She says as she yells at her*
If she had approached the bus driver politely and said “excuse me can I talk to you for a second”, and explain “my kids are coming home crying and I just want to know if they are doing something wrong or if you know what’s going on” rather than start out by yelling and demanding “don’t yell at my children” when they don’t even know the facts. Her kids could be causing trouble possibly. Figure out the facts. This video has more questions then answers.
She was courteous enough to say please, and she specifically did not want to make a big thing about it, which is why she din't ask her to have a conversation about it. It was the first time, the driver could have said ok.
Exactly. She handled it all wrong.
“Tell them….large Marge sent ya!”
It's a big responsibility driving a bus. And I'm not taking up for the bus driver. However, they need to pay attention to the road while driving as well as make sure the children stay in their seats to remain safe. School districts should either install seatbelts busses or hire monitors to ride each bus to prevent distraction of the driver. Just my opinion 🤷
how is she paying attention to the road if she's yelling at the children there's no way her attention can be on the road and at the end of the day it's mental abuse and it's not right and if she doesn't like her profession and she should find another one
@@billyjoeleader7064 how about the parents should make the kids mind. How about when them kids heard they momma telling the bus driver not to yell @ her kids today. Them kids was like yes . We can do whatever we want on this bus!! I remember how mean us kids were on the bus. Our bus driver would pull over & yell/ get on us & we deserved every bit of it. & when our parents found out we got more then yelled @ . Which we also deserved. Kids don’t respect their elders anymore & it’s Bc of their parents.
@@billyjoeleader7064, do we know she is yelling at them when she is driving? Perhaps she is yelling at the stops 🤔 Perhaps those aren't the only kids she's yelling at but they're the only one's that are crying to mommy 🤔
@@hanna.bell.lecter do we know that she wasn't? No, so stop trying to be special. Also, you aren't funny in the slightest, shit like this happens and you are ignorant to think otherwise
I just stopped being a school bus driver after 17 years. You dont have to yell at the kids..you need to some how get their attention so you may talk to them! Let them know the seriousness of a disruptive bus and how it puts everyone on that bus in danger everytime the driver has to pull her attention from driving! As for the parent..that bus driver was rude..make relationships with the parents so that its a team effort in safety! Communication is key!
Nah man our teachers pulled us by the ears, hit us with yardsticks. You know why? Because we needed it! Parents bubble wrapping their kids, WOW they are gonna get hit with reality as soon as they get out of P school
you are actually a victim lol
My nieces kids would only get off that bus ONE day crying. Then there would be a follow up and a potential motivational seminar for the driver..
Maybe your kids need to be yelled at....And Mom's approach to that situation sucked...
Our school bus, was a city bus. Bus driver, was big. If you stood he'd stop come back there, and tell you to sit down. Everybody listened.
That bus driver needs to lose her job!!! How dare SHE yell at a mom like that in front of those kids and then flip her off!!??? No damn way!
The mom yelled first. The mom is the reason there is a bus drivers shortage .
@@blackraspberry9509Um no she didn’t even yell what the hell are talking about you making shit up
@@blackraspberry9509Mom asked nicely. Driver needs to lose some teeth! 😊
"How dare you tell me not to yell at YOUR kids." Lol. Bus driver entitled af.
And then deny letting the kids off the bus...smfh...I'd be in prison for what I'd do
I would not put my kids on that bus. What if she takes retaliation now because the mom said something? That bus driver is clearly unhinged.
I wouldn't put my kids on the bus if it is such an issue, until the issue was resolved. Not to mention the fact that she kinda poked the bear with the comment please don't yell at my kid sas soon as the doors open. You can't mess with crazy, but you can avoid it.
Actually she told her/everyone to have a good day. Then asked her not to yell at her kids. She wasn't disrespectful ans had already tried to address the issue with transportation who failed her. She should have met with the school board maybe. But she did nothing wrong. That driver has issues!
@@JohnDoe-fx7qz no doubt but your childs safety comes first no?
I rode on a bus from hell for 13 years, no wonder I still hate them 37 years later!
I think parents today have to realize that their kids are part of a society that doesn't have to follow their rules with their kids . As long as no one is breaking the law people do not have to be your brand of nice to your children. Not wanting a bus driver to holler is silly. a bus is noisy and the bus driver can't leave her seat
I think adults today have to realize that they are part of a society where children's feelings are valued more than theirs are, because adults should be able to act with the maturity that comes with adulthood while children can't be expected to.
Nah I’d be taking my kids to school that day and talking to the principal to get her boss to the school so she’d get fired immediately for that behavior
Thanks for reporting this !
I live in Washington . . . Help😮😢
