Saying they were going to come to her house and break in, saying they were going to bring a knife and stab/cut her, repeatedly calling her awful and degrading names, physically touching her and being aggressive towards her. I think all of these little shits should be expelled from school and should have charges brought against them. There is absolutely no excuse for that behavior. I think it's great that other people are taking a stand and raising money for her but in my opinion that's not enough. Other people didn't do it to her. It's great that people care but the people who are responsible need to be held responsible. Honestly, this is scary to me that kids act so heartlessly to another human being. Kids have no respect for anyone or anything. So many parents raise their kids thinking they can have and do whatever they want, whenever they want and there are never any consequences. And so many parents these days just aren't parenting at all. This is a disgusting display of what human beings are really capable of and I am ashamed. If kids are being brought up on bullying charges against other kids, they should certainly be able to bring these kids up on charges of bullying against this woman. I seriously hope to God that none of these kids' parents are trying to make excuses for them or looking for any type of leniency. I am so fired up. This just seriously pisses me off. I wish the woman had gotten up and made the bus driver take the kids back to their school. Why didn't the bus driver intervene? Doesn't the monitor usually sit up toward the front? If this went on for 10 minutes the bus driver should have realized what was happening and should've done something. At this point does the bus driver have any recourse for making kids get off the bus before their actual stop? I mean I know they are responsible for getting them from door to door but seriously. If I were her or the bus driver I would've stopped the bus, called the police and waited right there until they arrived and given all of those kids over to the police.

I don't know what the qualifications are to be a bus driver, or an aide, but with all of the shit that seems to go down on school busses these days, I think they should (if they don't already) need some training that teachers go through in order to take control and handle these situations. There's so many things I can think of that I've learned through these classes that could have and should have been done, easily. What does an aide even do? I would think help in situations like this. She just sat there. Where was the bus driver in all of this as well? He/she should have pulled the bus over and take control over the situation. I don't know, I just don't get it.

I think maybe because back then they were actually afraid of what might be done to them/said to their parents. Today, nothing is or really can be done to them and they know it. Bullying other kids though is not a new thing. That's been going on since pretty much the dawn of time.
