Well, the Rochester area has made the news..again. Yep...the bullied bus monitor is from the Greece school District, one of our suburbs. The above link is to the CNN article, it includes the video.
I guess the thing she found most hurtful was when one of the kids said something about she has not family because they all killed themselves to get away from her. Her son took his own life 10 years ago.
Just heard on the local news that the father of one of the kids visited her to apologise. She has apparently gotten written apologies from two of the brats...all four turned themselves in.
She is showing a bit of class amnd will not press charges due to the harrassment...but will go with whatever punishment the school district gives. I a m goiing with a public apology..in front of their peers. And community service.
Yeah, they are "just kids" --7th graders. But this is the time they need to learn respect for other people, not just adults but all other people.
There is a new law on the books here in NY to prosecute bullies, but it is just bullying against children.
