View Full Version : Bus Trouble Again

This is just not my year!!! It is so frustrating so far. Usually I absolutely love driving the bus, but we're just a little over a 1/4 of the year and I'm at my wits end.
This time it is a Senior girl. She gets in trouble all the time at school and is now pregnant. She continues to break the rules right in front of me, like she is daring me. I just don't understand how she thinks. For now she is sitting in the front seat.
She was using her cell phone on the bus, it is not allowed, they are not allowed to use them at school either. She and I talked about it and she said she understood and "no problem." Well the other day she walks off the bus just yakking away on her cell phone. Duh....didn't we just discuss this???? This isn't the only reason she is sitting in the front seat. She also stood up while the bus was moving and wrestled her younger brother, eats on the bus, and moves from seat to seat.
Pretty soon I won't have to worry about going gray......I won't have any hair to turn!!!! I'll have it all pulled out at this rate!

Hmmmm..... she is trying you! Next time tell her, if she wants to act like a toddler on your bus, you will have to strap her in like a toddler!

Do you think she may be crying out for attention seems to me that as she is pregnant and always getting into trouble she may be wanting a shoulder to lean on some one to listern to her. Maybe?

I agree. Sounds like a helpless cry for attention. Sad. :( Sorry you're having to deal with this, Janet. It is not your responsibility to be the parent to all these children. Hope the situation gets better. :)

It is sad!! From what I know, her mother left her and her brother and their dad. I know that has to have some terrible consequences as far as she is concerned. I have talked with her while she sits in the front seat, but you can't believe a word this girl says. I honestly have no idea how to reach her.
She has stolen a car, rolled it, been kicked out of school a number of times, sleeps with anyone and everyone (from what I've heard) and so much more, but she just doesn't get it. Hopefully she'll grow up a bit with a baby coming....otherwise, that poor baby. What a life he/she is going to have. :(

Janet this girl definetly has major issues..look what this child has been through. She is crying out for attention. But its not your job to be a phycolgoist, Does she have a criminal record because of the auto theft? I would talk to the principal or guidance dept. She is acting out like a child , she is a child herself. This is a heavy burden for you to take on...Good luck keep us posted

Yes she does have major issues. All I can do is make sure she obeys the rules on the bus. It wouldn't be fair for her to get away with them and not the others. I won't be taking this on, no way. I'm not trained to deal with this.

Just say a prayer for her. That's one way that you can help her.

I have, as I do all the kids on my bus. Some of them really need the extra prayers. :)
