You can also tell that things have changed because back in the 1970's to the early 1980's I can say with absolute confidence all a school bus driver would have to do is report it to the school. the parents would be given notice to discipline their child but if that didn't work the child would be not be allowed to ride the bus.
@@Detrumpificator4377 People are just less civilized than they used to be. Not everyone, of course, but there's a much higher percentage of these people running around than there once was.
This social experiment of dumping kids in daycare with people whose only investment in that child is a paycheck... is a miserable failure. Kids need to be raised with love in a secure home and taught values, respect and responsibility. We have a plague of insensitive, entitled, misfits with no character or scruples.
@@CharGC123 Exactly! I agree with you completely. It's unfortunate that the greedy corporations refuse to pay people a living wage so that families can survive on one income and mothers can stay home and raise their children. Children should not be raised by strangers. A lot of children spend more time with teachers and daycare workers than they do with their own parents. Most teachers and daycare workers don't give a d@mn about other people's children. They are just there for the paycheck. So they do not treat people's children right. Too many parents are too busy to spend quality time with their children. Children need to be raised by a loving parent (s) who will teach them about respect and compassion.
Is this in Massachusetts? That explains everything, as Massachusetts is the LAND OF CRAZIES. The kids are horrible (as produced by ultra-liberal twisted parents). Also, who did allow an ASTHMATIC patient to drive a school bus, in the first place? This is a felony on part of the HR or on part of the driver who concealed her ineligibility for all these years.
Today's parents are the biggest failures. As an educator, every year we see more and more entitled parents raising AWFUL kids. My district has a bus crash this year due to bad student behavior. We also have a bus driver shortage (which messes stuff up boy). No wonder.
My husband drove school buses many years. Over 1 million miles driven. The horror stories he shared of kids behavior was frightening beyond words. It is a DANGEROUS job. My question has always been and will be:. A teacher can have a limited number of students probably an average of 25 with immediate backup as necessary. So why can you put up to 100 kids on a bus, sometimes for hours, with NO ONE for support. Then, expect that driver to drive a complex route, know where EACH student is to get off (because it is serious if a student gets off at the wrong stop), Drive defensively, avoid accidents and still monitor and discipline those 100 students? EVERY bus should have an assistant for student safety (maybe wearing body armor, seriously). Don't blame this driver. This is a safety issue that needs addressed by school boards (who have become useless protectors of our children) counties and states. These are reasons I have done everything in my power to avoid having my grandchildren on school buses. PROTECT OUR CHILDREN AND THE DRIVERS THAT HAVE SO DILIGENTLY AND BRAVELY TRANSPORTED THEM.
When I was in middle school, I practically harassed my bus driver for years, just being an annoying kid. She eventually did this exact thing to me and my friends. As the kid being screamed at, I can tell you I needed that reality check. She was serious and we obviously went too far. It helped me mature, and as a result, I still keep in touch with two bus drivers I had gotten very close to in high school. I still think about what that taught me. And guess what? It wasn't on the news...she wasn't at risk to lose her job...as a matter of fact, when we got to the school that day, the principle chewed our ass too. So everyone needs to quit being so sensitive. This is the stuff that these kids need to grow. I was one of those kids! I needed this to get right! And the kids today sure as hell do too!
Good on you for admitting that you were a little shite. It's refreshing to hear that you learnt from pushing the driver beyond their limits and being pulled up on your behaviour. I think back to a section of comedian Jim Jefferies 'Gun Control' where he talks about hassling teachers... We all had kids in class that took it to the next level... Gun Control is here on UA-cam, give it a watch. It's old yet incredibly relevant and relatable and damn funny. Hope you get a chuckle from it. If you have kids in the future or are already a parent,I think you'll be a better one for going through that and the honesty, integrity and ability to admit fault, learn and move on. They're underated qualities. Well done. Take care mate.
I agree but the schools and parents don't care about us bus drivers. I was rotten as well but now I'm a bus driver myself. You say boo to these kids and next thing you know you are either on report or looking for a new job. New jabs are hard to find these days. Those kids should be expelled for the rest of the school year.
That’s exactly it. I HATE when i get pissed at kids and someone tells me “you were a kid too!” Yeah, i was a little asshole, and when someone put me in my place like this lady, that would give me introspection to stop! Kids these days are absolutely horrific.
I applaud her, I drove for 8 yrs, I know the feeling. I had a bunch of middle schoolers spray shaving cream all over in the back of the bus. The sad thing is not only they were harming the driver they were also harming their fellow students!! Shame on the parents these days for raising awful pain in the butt kids.
Shame on you to encourage a adult threatening kids with physical harm those kids wasn't screaming at her with profanity or threatening to harm her. All she needed to do is have the school remove them from riding her bus.
I always wanted to drive. I could have made some serious money. When I saw this train coming down the tracks. A long time ago😢😢😢🤬😡😡😡👹👹☠✌👌🖖 yes indeed it's going to get a lot windier than it already is
The fact that she's an older adult who still has to work, and is getting that kind of treatment from the next generation is heartbreaking. Glad to hear her side of the story!! 👏
As an educator, we see entitled parents raising AWFUL children, more and more every year. Today's parents are the biggest failures. My district had a bus crash this year due to bad student behavior.

I heard that. N when u write them up nothing happens. Yet us drivers r held to the most rigorous standards. W/ dps; chp; board of education and trans managers, school district bigwigs. It's b.s. ...stuff rolls down hill.
Unparented children are the problem today. Too many parents ignore completely or cater too their kids. Its hard to parent and people just aren't doing it.
Undisciplined children. They are coddled to the point that they believe it their right to behave in any manner they choose, anywhere and everywhere. They do need someone's foot up their a$$.
... and papas. (Probably moreso papas... but we know the American family structure is broken and papa isn’t doing it. That’s a conversation for another day a story in that I highly doubt they’d be treating somebody to be looked to as their grandma like this if papa had been in the picture) but yes she had to let them know. This is what mama and grandma have to go through when papa hasn’t shaped his kids.
She shouldn't have to because she made it clear that strong oder's cause an asthma attack which endangers her and endangers the entire bus full of children because she could potentially crash. Why are children being allowed to behave like that putting themselves and everyone else on the bus and people on the road in danger so they can own the bus driver? This cannot stand! What happened to the policy of 3 strikes and you're permanently off the bus? Did some Karen win a lawsuit against a school district for kicking the Karens child off the bus?
After 26 years of school bus driving, I gave it up and went to Transit last July, 2022. Kids are not what they used to be. I've seen it all. Time for a change....I'm on the drivers side.
This is true. My husband drove for years as a school bus driver and now transit too. He said being a school bus driver was far more frustrating and draining.
A worrisome percentage of kids were already extremely problematic on the school bus when I was a public school student back in the 70s and 80s. Physical assault, smoking, etc. With their behavior getting even worse, it is amazing that school districts can hold on to drivers at all these days, especially since the pandemic prompted a lot of the older ones to retire earlier than planned.
@@IllHandleThis -- Kids have always behaved badly on the school bus to a degree, especially junior high age kids who are the hardest to control in the classroom as well. But I think there's an increasing level of disrespect toward their elders in recent generations, which has probably also been happening since the beginning of time. But as each generation gets more belligerent, the grownups working those jobs become less willing to put up with that behavior, and will walk away. Privacy concerns aside, I think we need more cameras monitoring the inside of school buses, and not just a single camera up front with a single narrow view down the middle of the bus. That will miss a lot of things going on behind the seats. If the kids know there are real consequences for their behavior, and that it will be documented on video -- and more importantly **the parents** have real consequences for the kids behavior, maybe it will stop
She’s like a mirror image of my middle school bus driver. She was also allergic to perfume, and the kids would spray stuff. They would bully her and say the meanest things. Whenever we would drive over a specific bridge, all the kids would run over to one side of the bus to try and tip the bus over. I remember I was being sexually assaulted repeatedly by another student on the bus and the only reason he finally got in trouble was because she reported it. Bus drivers definitely deserve to be treated with more respect.
Good on her!!! Some of these kids (mainly the 11,12,13 age group) are such little a$$ holes!! It’s terrible the way our senior citizens are treated in this country!! I wish this woman nothing but the very best. 💜
Middle schoolers are probably the worst, but I'm in an elem setting where we have kindergartners and on up who need mental health intervention and parents who think education includes parenting.
Bless her. She’s a saint for staying 15 years and has no reason to apologize. She’s owed apologies that she’ll never get, and should file a worker’s comp claim for the irritation of her asthma. 👏🏻
And you cannot file a claim for something that’s a preexisting condition and if you willfully put yourself in a position to agitate that condition I.e dealing with people. It’s very reasonable for people to have cologne on them especially at school. We showered in my school after gym everyday we all had cologne and deodorant in our bags all day. Sprayed it all the time no complaints and I have asthma I’m just not a bitter old woman lol
@david child abuse, are you kidding me? These kids were a threat to the safety of the bus and honestly some teens just need to be put in their place when they test out the limits. And saying 'oh no we don't do that that's bad' certainly won't do anything but make the feel like there are no consequences for there actions. And that's how we end up with a 6y.o. shooting a teacher out of anger.
Good for you, lady! Kids nowadays don't even know what discipline, respect, or good behavior is. Sometimes they really do need a good verbal lashing. God bless you❤
I am so glad she was able to tell her side of the story. A lot of people do a shitty job parenting. It makes my blood boil when children get away with the crap they do just because they are "children". Bullies are still bullies even if they target an adult. I am so happy people are helping her out.
I'm not defending bullies but, usually the people that bully others act different (Nice) around their parents then the people their bullying making bullying going unnoticed half of the time by the parents therefore the parents aren't always at fault.
@debraannmartinez7157 Actually, I wasn't even remotely talking about the bus driver at all. I support the bus driver for doing what she did. I was talking about a specific comment.
You can tell she actually cares. She’s not asking for respect, she’s demanding it. And if my kid was the one being a little s#it; I wouldn’t blame her one bit. I would however make sure my kid sincerely apologized and never let that happen again. Prayers she finds work where she’s appreciated and respected. 🙏🏼
if my kid was the antagonist, that child will find public transportation to school, whether Uber or local bus and pay for it with their allowance or get a job. I will not bring up a shithead. I will perish with my shit head before i inflict such a person on society.
That's the only way kids learn, Sergio! Good on ya for being the right kind of parent that your kids can count on to show them the Right Way. Kids mess up, they do dumb things and like lemmings, they sometimes follow their crowd right over the edge of the cliff and into the abyss. Doesn't mean you love them any less but it's not their crowd of friends who will teach them right from wrong, it's not their buddies who are strong enough, who care enough, who LOVES THEM enough, to actually stand for the right thing. That's the job of a Mother and Father. Our children have plenty of friends; they need (and want!) parents who can PARENT, not be their buddy.
I remember when I was in middle school (in the 90’s), I had a teacher that would cry almost every day because the class was out of control. I remember the kids laughing and mocking her when she was upset. Looking back, I don’t know how she dealt with that kind of stress. She snapped like this bus driver did a couple times and it only made the kids laugh. Working with kids is tough! I feel like you’ve got to kick out the trouble makers who cause the rest to act out along with them.
I think its honestly because ass whoopings have been pretty well phased out, or throwing like a marker board eraser at a kid. XD They are light and wont actually hurt anyone.
As someone who works within the public school system, I applaud her. Kids these days have no respect for teachers nor support staff. The amount of things I see and hear on a regular basis is crazy.
I partially agree. But teachers need to start behaving respectfully. I have zero respect for teachers in public schools because they only strike for pay increases but never when the curriculum suffers and they know it. They never strike when a school district decides to lower its grading curve.
We actually had a mom of 3 terribly difficult children who were always causing trouble on the bus get a job as a bus aide at the bus garage. She said "How hard could this job be? I won't allow some little kids to disrespect me!" She quit the first day on the job, right after the morning bus run! She couldn't handle it. 😂
I’m DEFINITELY on the bus drivers side, kids these days need a boot in the ass…..we learned RESPECT growing up, too many kids these days have NONE. Our public school system is a total failure, my kid is THRIVING in a charter school after I pulled her out of the toxic environment she was dealing with daily. Ohio needs the school choice bill passed !
don’t say shit you don’t know. this is my school. learn your facts straight before you start spreading false information 😹. the kids in that bus are good. i know the girl that was yelled at. she’s an extremely nice person.
@Glizzy Gobbler Maybe you meant to say some people on that bus are good, maybe she started yelling at the people that were good and not the people that were bad by accident but how could she tell when the bad kids treat her like shit almost every day on that bus 🤔
As a teacher of ages 5 to 10, I can tell you that the bad behavior has escalated so much over the past 5 years. Kids are so disrespectful. They have no cares about learning anything. I have been told that they wanted to kill me. And the few students who do care and do want to learn have their learning stopped and disrupted so many times a day due to those students with bad behaviors that it’s a wonder that they learn anything. If people wonder why test scores are low and their kids aren’t learning it’s because of bad behaviors of them or others in their class.
And think of all the tax $$$$ that goes to schools. This country (US) throws millions of dollars at schools to "make them better". Ha. I don't think it's working. Overall, many kids are dumbing down.
This is why if students don't want to learn and be disruptive instead, they should not forced. They should instead basically be forced to do community service -- pick up litter, clean public toilets, do maintenance work. No pay.
This reminds me back when I was in my Spanish 2 class! Every day was a battle! Kids would never be quiet, they’d make fun of the teacher, they fool around! The worst part was i barely learned anything in that class, because of the constant disruptions. I luckily passed, however, the next year I was put in Spanish 3 and I didn’t know a single thing! It was horrible! High schoolers (16-18 year olds) acting like toddlers!
My last bus driver was named Helmut Bolt. A German living in Canada who didn't hesitate to stop the bus if he thought the kids were being ungrateful. I miss those days.
You didn’t dare, when we were coming up - You boarded the School Bus, & didn’t utter a peep, unless you were talking to your neighbor in the seat with you - If you did something bad, you could fully expect to be at least, suspended, if not expelled - If you were bad, don’t bother going home, just keep going ! Kids didn’t get away with much - There was a lot more Authority around back then & action would be taken against you - That’s why we have the problems that we have now - Bc of passive, unfit parents who expect the Teachers and School Staff to rear their kids for them - Everything is the Teachers Fault or the Public Schools fault - What about the unfit parents that are too unfit to raise their kids properly ?! What about Them ?!
DONT APPOLOGIZE! I am a middle school teacher and it is the worst job I have ever had. I am in my last 6 weeks and I'm done. I was recently reported by students for treating an 8th grader like a kindergartener offering stickers and candy if he stopped cursing and running around the classroom and scribbling on other kids work and could stay in his seat. I played toddler music and sat at his table and gave him one on one instruction for the rest of class. I would talk real loud and praise himfor following all the classroom policies. I am at the end of my rope. I was put on a behavior plan last year because I told a classroom of highschooolers they were acting like a bunch of A$$H0!=$. I promise you this bus driver was not out of line at all. These kids are terrible and they need to bring back paddling.
I got fired thanks to the little middle school angels ... They turned out the lights and sat trash cans on fire. One Angel ran out of the classroom with his pants open,screaming to the top of his lungs that " I SAed him." The other kids backed him up. I spent the rest of the day with the police. Finally, one kid told the truth. To this day, I'm still suffering from PTSD. One kid got a broom and busted it over my back. I ended up with lifelong pain and blood pressure that would not go down even under treatment. Luckily, I ended up getting disability. I had 7th grade students from ages 12-17. Yes, you heard right, age 17. I had about six students aged 16-18 in 7th grade, and most of them had a great relationship with the criminal justice system. I tried to keep them away from the younger ones. I found out that a substitute before I was assigned the job wasn't teaching the class but putting on videos and letting them sleep all day. She told the students to "act a fool, and they would run me off, and she would be back."
I applaud you. I’m so sorry for what you’ve had to deal with and I hope that you find a job worth your time and actually one that will pay you what you deserve.
@@cynthiaconner8601 my God,what a horror story. I sincerely hope things get better for you. And sadly we both know this situation with these little monster's is only going to get worse. We're doomed!
Disheartening that parents think bus drivers should accept this sort of naughty behavior. Many school districts do not have a responsibility to supply buses at all.
You couldn’t pay me enough to be a school bus driver. My generation was awful even before social media…there are genuine sociopaths in many public schools who will eventually end up in the corrections system…you don’t want to be there
I completely agree. Teachers and bus drivers deserve more pay. I was lucky to walk to school when I was young but did have to ride the bus my last year since we moved and the kids were horrrrrrible. This was in the early 2000s. Just not raised right. Dogs at the shelters act better-!!
@@sabrinavang8024 Not enough money to take that job! You gonna end up spending all of it on legal fees to stay out of prison. Especially after you jump on one of those brats!
These parents remind me of the parents of the teenagers who broke into the home of retired NFL football player, Brian Holloway. They didn't just party in Mr. Holloway's lovely vacation home - they trashed it. BADLY. Mr. Holloway had an idea, though - he would hold a big cookout for the kids, who would come over and clean up the mess they'd made in his house. He thought this would be a good way to teach the kids about consequences but yet, he wouldn't have to be a hard-a$$ about it, and he could perhaps salvage his relationship with the community and the parents. Only one kid showed up. ONE, out of approximately a hundred. With his parents, who told Mr. Holloway that, although their son had assured them that he had NOT participated in any vandalism, he did go in the house & for the kid's (appropriately appalled) parents, that was good enough reason for their son to help clean up the God-awful MESS his friends had made of Mr. Holloway's lovely vacation home. The rest of the kids' parents? They threatened to sue Mr. Holloway for cutting and pasting the photographs the kids themselves took, as they broke into and helped themselves to Mr. Holloway's liquor cabinet, kicked holes in sheetrock, threw up all over the place, stopped up the toilets, etc. You know - just "normal kid stuff", I'm sure that's what these indulgent, clueless parents told themselves. But they became quite irate when the faces of their little darlings went viral, and their entire community was outraged that these teenagers, from affluent families, who lived in gated communities, should behave so badly, and, apparently, with the tacit permission of their clueless parents.
I remember kids on the bus being absolutely awful to my bus driver through middle school. He would have to repeatedly stop the bus to yell at the kids, but they would just smirk and keep on.
Same here, I never understood it. Attention I guess? Or a sense of power? I just sat quietly with a friend and wanted to get home 😭😭 those bus rides home were always hell with kids like that. They’d skip down the aisle while we were on a highway or smth and throw shit out of windows. Embarrassing and no etiquette or respect for anyone
@@XFizzlepop-Berrytwist We still do that when we can lol.. If they are our last route for the AM or PM we can just park the bus and wait until it is safe to continue to drive. If it gets really bad we can sit even if we have another route - we call it in and have it covered OR the other school has to wait for us to finally show up lol.. Nothing like having a High School call the Middle School and asking WTF your students are causing our Bus driver to be late. Any Bus driver can stop their Bus if it is unsafe to continue. We have to judge if we should just return to the school and see about getting students taken off the BUS (if we can see who it is) I have stopped the BUS and I have returned to school. In High School this works a treat.. The OTHER students will gang up the the problem children and tell them to stop fucking around or to shut the fuck up as they want to get home. I have even stopped my Bus and had the Police brought to the Bus to pull off an unruly student (even on the LAST day of School lmao that was priceless)
Let me guess, the students were disciplined by being told "don't behave like that" then they go home and tell their parents, parents call the school screaming "my kid would never do something like that!" Nothing gets done anymore, it's all mob rule and disrespect.
What would you like to happen bud? Should we line them up and taser them for “ using perfume “ welcome to the real word bud, people have just as many rights as you do and one of those rights is finding a job where you don’t willfully expose yourself to allergens. Lmao
some parents are like that, but mine would yell at me. i despise parents who attack educators and public school workers and even sports coaches for disciplining their kids or just simply raising their voice at them
I remember in school we had an older lady teacher that was allergic to different perfumes and the kids would consistently taunt her and spray stuff in class. Many kids have no guidance because their parents are non existent or don’t care. I feel for her. Sometimes we lash out when we’re angry. She had every right with the abuse she was facing.
We had a bus driver who’d been doing the job for about 45 years before he passed away some years ago. He didn’t need the money as he was also a pretty successful farmer. He served with the 101st in WWII and didn’t take any shit. Once my 2 younger brothers wouldn’t stop acting up on the bus so he stopped, went back and made them hug each other all the way to school. When they told dad, he said they were lucky the driver didn’t crack their heads together like he did to dad and his brother when they rode the bus. To this day, anyone who knew him misses old Charlie.
We moved to a new city before the start of my senior year in high school and I was excited to finally get to ride the school bus 😅. Then I was so shocked at how horribly rude the kids were to the bus driver. One day they made her cried when one of the kids started yelling out questions like: “how many baby daddies do you have?”. We were all late to school that day because the superintendent had to give us a long lecture and warnings. After that, the kids were nicer to her. It’s so sad, lots of kids nowadays are so entitled and rude.
I drove a school bus for 7 years and I can side with Jackie, school administration rarely backed up the driver. The school administration with their half ass to nothing discipline, I'd write up major things and repeat offenses from usually same trouble makers only to get parents cuss you out at stops, rude kids, and no support from the school b/c god forbid we inconvenience a student or parent, Plus the cameras mean nothing! They more interested in what the driver is doing. The lack of school support was the worse and #1 reason I moved on from this job. Thanks for all your great years of driving Jackie!!!
my parents even said if i acted that terrible to a teacher i will get all privileges taken away for weeks. i’m 12 and i know there is some TERRIBLE kids out there that have zero respect for teachers. i have so much respect for all teachers and public school workers. if you do fall in any of those categories, thank you so much i really appreciate it
Your parents are doing something right it’s amazing to see a young person as your self get on here and stand beside this bus driver your parents are probably truly proud of the adult you become ❤
@@antheawilson-carl8442 thank you! both my parents have been teaching for 25+ years and they know the disrespect teachers and especially bus drivers get
My grandpa was a bus driver for over 25 years and the amount of crap he had to put up with was absoultly insane... I got to witness some of it when I was on his bus. Some people truly need to get a foot up their butt so it dangles out their nose 😂
This issue runs so much deeper than this y’all I quit my elementary school teaching job this year and it was the best decision I’ve made. Kids are horrible these days and it’s all their parents faults. Pandemic made people forget how to parent and kids forgot or never learned how to act right and have some sense. It’s such a huge problem. Expect anything and everything to do with working with children or caring for children get more difficult to access and way more expensive due to there simply not being enough of these services anymore. People don’t want to work with these pandemic kids, they’re way too out of control, disrespectful and also way out of our pay grade and area of expertise. It’s sad. I had a few kids I liked and tolerated but most of them were just annoying and never learned basic skills like keeping your hands to yourself, respecting your teacher and personal space. Like wtf were parents doing during covid? Clearly not parenting.
The bud driver’s job is so important. Carrying children back n forth to school. The drivers should be able to give out detention slips to any rider not following rules, and acting rude. In the least kicked off the bus for a day or two.
Detention means little to most kids anymore. They either ignore it or actually want detention so they can catch up on the school work they didn’t do because they were busy playing video games. They need to walk.
Bus drivers do have the ability to write up students for behavior issues in the bus. The problem is the school officials do nothing. The parents usually get a phone call from the principal but the parents scream and yell "not my kid! My kid would never do that! I'll sue the district if my child cannot ride the bus" And then the schools fold like a cheap tent and give into the parents. It's really disgusting.
@K8T We had students, 8th graders in middle school, that usually 2-4 were safety monitors on the bus. If they reported the problem, parents were called in. Repeat offenders lost the bus privilege. Then, kids walked to school or parents had to find alternative transportation. It solved issues because it was used.
@@JoseSanchezdontyaknow Ya ever hear the way they talk to each other? Or the shit lyrics to the music they listen to! The crap they watch? How about the way they disrespect adults?
Man. Times have changed. In the 80s, school bus drivers would often yell and scold kids when they were misbehaving. Other than the profanity, she’s done nothing wrong and I commend her. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽‼️
I'm so sad I never yelled at so many people in my life - specifically Becky, Patty and Missy at Casis Elementary's 5th grade (Austin, TX) in 1963/64. And the 5th grade teacher was terrified of those girls, never said a thing - so we ALL suffered. I bet the nice kids on this bus were absolutely elated that this lady stood up not just for herself, but for ALL the kids on the bus that had to quietly tolerate the gross behavior and meanness of this 'core' group.
They “have to “ quietly tolerate it, all it takes for evil to triumph,is for good people to do nothing. They didn’t “have to “ sit there and do nothing all those times this old lady was bullied. Bullies get away with so much partly because of the amount of cowards in this world. I know standing up to bullies isn’t easy, I’ve done it more than once, but once you do,you quickly find out that bullies are the biggest cowards on earth
You should type those little b's names into Google and see how they have reaped what they have sewn. It would take you about 15 min to make yourself feel better and let that shizz go.
Ten seconds into her comments and I can tell she’s a very decent lady who has had to put up with a lot of crap, probably from about 20% of these kids, while the rest are fine. She had enough and got pushed over the top. There is far less courtesy and respect for adults than there ever has been, although in Alabama, the kids are quite well-behaved overall.
I’ve been teaching for 29 years. I totally get this. Kids are out of control and it’s 100% the parents fault. When my last year of teaching comes along, I’m going to tell it like it is!
This is because the parents raised their kids to not accept NO for an answer and everyone gets an award. I remember some 15 years ago I was trying to study at the library (when I was growing up librarians still shushed people who were too noisy). These kids were running around screaming. I asked the librarian to tell them to stop. She said they could not because the parents would get really upset.
@@glizzygobbler5250 i am.sorry they have failed everyone at that school... this is why i homeschooled and am homeschooling my kids... my kids will have respect and love and compassion for all humans ... this school failed the kids the teachers the community and all if this is their attitudes

It’s horrible the way kids act now a days!!! And they pick on anyone who does not act like them!!! Forces good kids to be bad so they are left alone that is what kids are going thru these days it’s bad my daughter was beating up by a boy and he told the teachers I beat up girls my dad does it I will to!!! They have no boundaries anymore no good upbringing just thugs raising more thugs and they spoil them and they don’t earn or deserve anything
Someone needs to retaliate against these unruly kids, I had the unfortunate experience of traveling on a bus, top deck full of kids, it was a horrible and disgusting, I nearly lost it and believe me the kids of today fear no one and do as they please.
It’s not just her, all School district employees have to put up with disrespectful kids, That’s why Schools are so short of Staff. Good for this Lady 💪🏼
I as a bus driver have driven for a public school district of all aged kids and also for the mentally and physically disabled. I can tell you just like I told a bus load of middle school kids, the mentally and physically handicapped clients I have driven have more respect for themselves and others and also more sense than the “normal “ kids I have driven. It’s a shame how society is so accepting of this behavior and I feel it’s the breakdown of society.
I believe it! IMO, bus drivers do not get the credit they deserve. They have to drive, monitor, and correct the kids all at the same time. Thank you for what you do!
You see the behavior of these brats all over the city. Doesn't matter if they with an adult or not. This woman is probably a very nice lady, but when you have kids attacking teachers or spraying things in order to illicit a response, they got exactly what they wanted.
@@4862cjc ln many cases, the fucking parents are a major part of the problem! One morning I had one calling me a fucking son of a bitch right in front of the school with all kind of other kids being dropped off.
I have been a Nurse for 35 years.. ventilator nurse.. ICU nurse... perfume spray can totally trigger a asthma attack and this lady could have gotten sick,need EMS and die. WE did CPR ON A PATIENT WITH NO AIR MOVEMENT WITH A ASTHMATIC ISSUES..SHE DIED. I am very sensitive to perfumes..smokes.. fumes, rubber smells and cologne..
No need to apologize Ms Jackie some of these kids are horrible on the bus and the driver can’t do anything about it… you just did what so many others want to but they are afraid to lose their job… Salute to you!!!
@@travelinman482 there is a boundary between being kind in general and defending yourself. While the students were clearly not respectful towards the bus driver. I will do the same if i were in her shoes. You shouldn’t always being kind towards who doesn’t value you and disrespectful to you once they cross your boundaries. otherwise : it only shows that you dont know what is self love and you show to the world even You doesn’t respect yourself . So i dont think you truly understand the motive behind her action
On the bus drivers side💯. When it used to snow back in the day, we'd scoop snow from the top of the bus and have snowball fights literally *on the bus* smh. Some people (not me I had home training) even threw snowballs at the busdriver! They get cursed out and everything else. Nobody knows what they truly go through. We should stand behind the people that take our kids to school💯.
Im a substitute teacher and it can get TOUGH with middle school students. They can be really disrespectful and give you a hard time so I understand how she felt, it takes a LOT to restrain yourself from going off on them
Being a substitute is probably 10x worse than a teacher. Unless your a cool substitute. I had a lot of them. Except for 1, she would get upset easily and didn’t really have thick enough skin to handle some of the shit asses
We had the best bus driver when I was a kid . Vi, if you're out there THANK YOU ! There was no bullying , bull shit , or violence. Every year Vi gave the same speech : " I need the money and you need the ride . Now sit down and shut up ! " 😂😎😅 She also gave out Smarties , tissues and encouraging words , on our tough days . I would never except the responsibility of an entire neighborhoods children . Much respect to all school bus drivers.😘
i heard, idk if it’s true, that the driver submitted complaints ab the students and they did nothing. everyone should be on that poor woman’s side, the parents should be ashamed
No, we just need parents to do their damn jobs and stop treating school like it's supposed to do the job of parenting. No way I could ever act like that on a school bus or disrespect an adult in general. My dad would have tore my ass up and then made me apologize.
I don't know how on earth today's bus drivers can take with the horrendous disrespectful unruly children out there!!! Poor parenting due to no discipline...My deepest respect to her and others who are forced to endure this abuse! 😪🙏💗🙏💗👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I'm an older guy who isn't going to sit here and tell you that we didn't act like little bastards at times when we were kids. The big difference today (and the problem) is that if our parents saw this video, they wouldn't be outraged at the bus driver's behavior- they would be outraged at whatever behavior we engaged in that pushed this woman that far, and then probably ground us for a week.
People always wanna talk about "back on my day" no one cares. The reason this is on tv and the internet is because that's what we have now. Teachers used to beat students who used their left hands, stop acting like people in the past were "better" they just had the excuse that people today have access to all this information when back then you could lie to people and it was completely okay and they believed it.
@Hailee Nowacki Nah, YOU don't care...and that's totally OK. But bus cameras and phones in classes were applied right in the early 2000s....bus drivers are mostly chill...its the kids acting up. And parents still haven't taken full responsibility of their bad azz kids like they would have handled it then....a parent KNOWS their child so they know who is lying or not. Especially, if that parent does not have a good relationship with the kids teacher and on their butts when they act out...
I've always believed that it takes a village to raise a child I'm on her side. I'm 60 now but when I was a girl if I misbehave on the bus I'd hear it from the principal the bus driver and then my parents😏
First of all if she was having an asthma attack she would not be able to scream at the students like that. She does not belong on a driving a school bus,she never did.I’ve been a School Bus driver for many years and even though the students can become a challenge never never SCREAM at them and use that type of language ,remember they are children they need guidance and direction .Right from the start let them know what you expect of them and do not faulted when you see an infraction It’s your job to make sure the behave and to keep them safe
Completing my bus driver training now. Kids seem nice and respectful, but you always get one or two. I would quit long before I'd reach the point of a meltdown like this.
We live in a small town area and have two friends who are bus drivers. They both talk about how bad so many of the kids are, just uncontrollable. My sister-in-law was an aide for years and quit because she said it wasn’t enjoyable anymore. The parents won’t back the teachers or anyone. We have people moving in from everywhere. It didn’t use to be this bad.
Is this in Massachusetts? That explains everything, as Massachusetts is the LAND OF CRAZIES. The kids are horrible (as produced by ultra-liberal twisted parents). Also, who did allow an ASTHMATIC patient to drive a school bus, in the first place? This is a felony on part of the HR or on part of the driver who concealed her ineligibility for all these years.
The kids that act up shouldn’t have bus privileges. They need to learn about consequences such as: Treat your bus driver poorly you will end up with no bus rides. It use to be that way and it was good for all concerned.
I suffer from that same allergy. I trained to work in a hospital because they are supposed to be scent free. It wasn’t and I was miserable. Our only option is to communicate this to whoever we are in close quarters with. Unfortunately, it makes some people retaliate and what they don’t realize is it literally can kill us. I want to buy a t-shirt ❤
Same here. I worked in a supposedly controlled environment in a hospital and a coworker deliberately lathered herself in a scented lotion before stepping in. I’m allergic and the new, clueless manager she complained to actually saw her do it. Yet, I was treated like the bad guy.
I get her frustration. My wife wanted me to get a job as a bus driver a while back and I told her, I wasn't equipped to deal with kids like the ones this bus driver had to deal with. However, threatening and cussing at the kids is unacceptable. I understand that it just all came to a head, but did she try going to the principal? When I was in high school, there were a few bad kids and at one point, for 2 weeks, the principal or vice principal rode the bus in the afternoons because of it.
People like her are what we need more of. I think I was part of the last generation to have teachers and crossing guards and bus drivers that didn’t take any shit. I graduated high school in 2003.

We need more bus drivers like this that will not take any crap from these kids today that have no respect for their elders, because the parents don't want to discipline them and instill manners into them. Parents rather be their children's friends instead of parents. This lady should get a huge raise after this. Give this lady her job back she did nothing wrong but stand up for herself, and tell these kids how she really felt. It's sickening how everything has to go viral than the lady loses her job, because community leaders need to make examples because they don't want to deal with the heat.
When students are out of control and bullies are assaulting students on the bus who is responsible. THE BUS DRIVER. I wish my children had a bus driver that kept control over their bus vs letting kids go wild being disrespectful and abusive towards other students. This was obviously a breaking point for that bus driver and she stood her ground. Kids and parents don't like it 🤔 Then TEACH you kids some respect and decency 😡 Blaming the driver is a cowardly action for the parents neglect to educate their children on proper manners and respect 🙄
You can tell that this wasn't an abusive or malicious person. It was just someone who had reached their breaking point after having enough.
You can also tell that things have changed because back in the 1970's to the early 1980's I can say with absolute confidence all a school bus driver would have to do is report it to the school. the parents would be given notice to discipline their child but if that didn't work the child would be not be allowed to ride the bus.
@@Detrumpificator4377 People are just less civilized than they used to be. Not everyone, of course, but there's a much higher percentage of these people running around than there once was.
This social experiment of dumping kids in daycare with people whose only investment in that child is a paycheck... is a miserable failure. Kids need to be raised with love in a secure home and taught values, respect and responsibility. We have a plague of insensitive, entitled, misfits with no character or scruples.
Bullshit! She is a white woman nothing will happen to her. She will be labeled as hero, not loud, ghetto or ratchet.
@@CharGC123 Exactly! I agree with you completely. It's unfortunate that the greedy corporations refuse to pay people a living wage so that families can survive on one income and mothers can stay home and raise their children. Children should not be raised by strangers. A lot of children spend more time with teachers and daycare workers than they do with their own parents. Most teachers and daycare workers don't give a d@mn about other people's children. They are just there for the paycheck. So they do not treat people's children right. Too many parents are too busy to spend quality time with their children. Children need to be raised by a loving parent (s) who will teach them about respect and compassion.
She should not apologize. The parents should be apologizing to her for their horrible children.
And the ballless administrators that don't want to support the drivers!

Never apologize. Never.
Today's parents are the biggest failures. As an educator, every year we see more and more entitled parents raising AWFUL kids. My district has a bus crash this year due to bad student behavior. We also have a bus driver shortage (which messes stuff up boy). No wonder.
Why not the children apologize? The parent is not controlling them you know
My husband drove school buses many years. Over 1 million miles driven. The horror stories he shared of kids behavior was frightening beyond words. It is a DANGEROUS job. My question has always been and will be:. A teacher can have a limited number of students probably an average of 25 with immediate backup as necessary. So why can you put up to 100 kids on a bus, sometimes for hours, with NO ONE for support. Then, expect that driver to drive a complex route, know where EACH student is to get off (because it is serious if a student gets off at the wrong stop), Drive defensively, avoid accidents and still monitor and discipline those 100 students? EVERY bus should have an assistant for student safety (maybe wearing body armor, seriously). Don't blame this driver. This is a safety issue that needs addressed by school boards (who have become useless protectors of our children) counties and states. These are reasons I have done everything in my power to avoid having my grandchildren on school buses. PROTECT OUR CHILDREN AND THE DRIVERS THAT HAVE SO DILIGENTLY AND BRAVELY TRANSPORTED THEM.
God bless your husband for his civil service and your story to bring awareness ❤❤❤
When I was in middle school, I practically harassed my bus driver for years, just being an annoying kid. She eventually did this exact thing to me and my friends. As the kid being screamed at, I can tell you I needed that reality check. She was serious and we obviously went too far. It helped me mature, and as a result, I still keep in touch with two bus drivers I had gotten very close to in high school. I still think about what that taught me. And guess what? It wasn't on the news...she wasn't at risk to lose her job...as a matter of fact, when we got to the school that day, the principle chewed our ass too. So everyone needs to quit being so sensitive. This is the stuff that these kids need to grow. I was one of those kids! I needed this to get right! And the kids today sure as hell do too!
Good on you for admitting that you were a little shite. It's refreshing to hear that you learnt from pushing the driver beyond their limits and being pulled up on your behaviour. I think back to a section of comedian Jim Jefferies 'Gun Control' where he talks about hassling teachers... We all had kids in class that took it to the next level... Gun Control is here on UA-cam, give it a watch. It's old yet incredibly relevant and relatable and damn funny. Hope you get a chuckle from it.
If you have kids in the future or are already a parent,I think you'll be a better one for going through that and the honesty, integrity and ability to admit fault, learn and move on. They're underated qualities. Well done. Take care mate.
Amen Amen Amen I've been a aide on the bus for years and alot of these kids need a stearn talking 2 beginning with the Parents
I agree but the schools and parents don't care about us bus drivers. I was rotten as well but now I'm a bus driver myself. You say boo to these kids and next thing you know you are either on report or looking for a new job. New jabs are hard to find these days. Those kids should be expelled for the rest of the school year.
Amen !
That’s exactly it. I HATE when i get pissed at kids and someone tells me “you were a kid too!” Yeah, i was a little asshole, and when someone put me in my place like this lady, that would give me introspection to stop! Kids these days are absolutely horrific.
I applaud her, I drove for 8 yrs, I know the feeling. I had a bunch of middle schoolers spray shaving cream all over in the back of the bus. The sad thing is not only they were harming the driver they were also harming their fellow students!! Shame on the parents these days for raising awful pain in the butt kids.
These parents are all soft snow flakes
Shame on you to encourage a adult threatening kids with physical harm those kids wasn't screaming at her with profanity or threatening to harm her. All she needed to do is have the school remove them from riding her bus.
I always wanted to drive. I could have made some serious money. When I saw this train coming down the tracks. A long time ago😢😢😢🤬😡😡😡👹👹☠✌👌🖖 yes indeed it's going to get a lot windier than it already is
In conclusion oh, I applaud her immensely. Also.😂😂
How is that harming anyone shaving cream actually cleans things
The fact that she's an older adult who still has to work, and is getting that kind of treatment from the next generation is heartbreaking. Glad to hear her side of the story!! 👏
The only ppl that are upset with her are the parents of the types of kids she’s yelling at
This is 100% correct
💯💯💯💯
Bingo! And those parents better learn quick that schools and busses aren’t day care/babysitting facilities.
You nailed it.

Unparented children are the problem today. Too many parents ignore completely or cater too their kids. Its hard to parent and people just aren't doing it.
Undisciplined children.
They are coddled to the point that they believe it their right to behave in any manner they choose, anywhere and everywhere.
They do need someone's foot up their a$$.
“She said my foot gonna be so far up your ass it’s gonna be dangling out your nose “ 😂😂😂😂😂 yeah grandma get him
She wouldn't "take it back"! I love this! Even when given the opportunity to save face she held her ground on the lesson she wanted to teach.
She’s doing what their mamas need to be doing. God bless her!
... and papas. (Probably moreso papas...
but we know the American family structure is broken and papa isn’t doing it. That’s a conversation for another day a story in that I highly doubt they’d be treating somebody to be looked to as their grandma like this if papa had been in the picture) but yes she had to let them know. This is what mama and grandma have to go through when papa hasn’t shaped his kids.

@@noble604 No God, No Bible, No Jesus
Exactly.
She shouldn't have to because she made it clear that strong oder's cause an asthma attack which endangers her and endangers the entire bus full of children because she could potentially crash. Why are children being allowed to behave like that putting themselves and everyone else on the bus and people on the road in danger so they can own the bus driver? This cannot stand! What happened to the policy of 3 strikes and you're permanently off the bus? Did some Karen win a lawsuit against a school district for kicking the Karens child off the bus?
After 26 years of school bus driving, I gave it up and went to Transit last July, 2022. Kids are not what they used to be. I've seen it all. Time for a change....I'm on the drivers side.
This is true. My husband drove for years as a school bus driver and now transit too. He said being a school bus driver was far more frustrating and draining.
A worrisome percentage of kids were already extremely problematic on the school bus when I was a public school student back in the 70s and 80s. Physical assault, smoking, etc.
With their behavior getting even worse, it is amazing that school districts can hold on to drivers at all these days, especially since the pandemic prompted a lot of the older ones to retire earlier than planned.
@@TakenTookI figured it was probably always bad. I don’t know how the world could ever get better at this rate. Pretty sure it’s doomsday.
@@IllHandleThis -- Kids have always behaved badly on the school bus to a degree, especially junior high age kids who are the hardest to control in the classroom as well. But I think there's an increasing level of disrespect toward their elders in recent generations, which has probably also been happening since the beginning of time. But as each generation gets more belligerent, the grownups working those jobs become less willing to put up with that behavior, and will walk away.
Privacy concerns aside, I think we need more cameras monitoring the inside of school buses, and not just a single camera up front with a single narrow view down the middle of the bus. That will miss a lot of things going on behind the seats. If the kids know there are real consequences for their behavior, and that it will be documented on video -- and more importantly **the parents** have real consequences for the kids behavior, maybe it will stop
*Amen*
She’s like a mirror image of my middle school bus driver. She was also allergic to perfume, and the kids would spray stuff. They would bully her and say the meanest things. Whenever we would drive over a specific bridge, all the kids would run over to one side of the bus to try and tip the bus over. I remember I was being sexually assaulted repeatedly by another student on the bus and the only reason he finally got in trouble was because she reported it. Bus drivers definitely deserve to be treated with more respect.
Wow that sounds like the bus ride from Hell 😢
Wow
But how did they know that she had an allergic she could handle that better. I feel bad but at the same time. That situation could Been a lot worse
Good on her!!! Some of these kids (mainly the 11,12,13 age group) are such little a$$ holes!! It’s terrible the way our senior citizens are treated in this country!! I wish this woman nothing but the very best. 💜

Middle schoolers are probably the worst, but I'm in an elem setting where we have kindergartners and on up who need mental health intervention and parents who think education includes parenting.

Bless her. She’s a saint for staying 15 years and has no reason to apologize. She’s owed apologies that she’ll never get, and should file a worker’s comp claim for the irritation of her asthma. 👏🏻
She’s a loser who couldn’t handle an easy job lol.
And you cannot file a claim for something that’s a preexisting condition and if you willfully put yourself in a position to agitate that condition I.e dealing with people. It’s very reasonable for people to have cologne on them especially at school. We showered in my school after gym everyday we all had cologne and deodorant in our bags all day. Sprayed it all the time no complaints and I have asthma I’m just not a bitter old woman lol
She isn't a saint. You can't talk like that.
@david child abuse, are you kidding me? These kids were a threat to the safety of the bus and honestly some teens just need to be put in their place when they test out the limits. And saying 'oh no we don't do that that's bad' certainly won't do anything but make the feel like there are no consequences for there actions. And that's how we end up with a 6y.o. shooting a teacher out of anger.

I am so glad she was able to tell her side of the story. A lot of people do a shitty job parenting. It makes my blood boil when children get away with the crap they do just because they are "children". Bullies are still bullies even if they target an adult. I am so happy people are helping her out.
I'm not defending bullies but, usually the people that bully others act different (Nice) around their parents then the people their bullying making bullying going unnoticed half of the time by the parents therefore the parents aren't always at fault.

That's the only way kids learn, Sergio! Good on ya for being the right kind of parent that your kids can count on to show them the Right Way. Kids mess up, they do dumb things and like lemmings, they sometimes follow their crowd right over the edge of the cliff and into the abyss. Doesn't mean you love them any less but it's not their crowd of friends who will teach them right from wrong, it's not their buddies who are strong enough, who care enough, who LOVES THEM enough, to actually stand for the right thing.
That's the job of a Mother and Father.
Our children have plenty of friends; they need (and want!) parents who can PARENT, not be their buddy.
@@ElaineHardy-ou6ir absolutely! 💯
I remember when I was in middle school (in the 90’s), I had a teacher that would cry almost every day because the class was out of control. I remember the kids laughing and mocking her when she was upset. Looking back, I don’t know how she dealt with that kind of stress. She snapped like this bus driver did a couple times and it only made the kids laugh. Working with kids is tough! I feel like you’ve got to kick out the trouble makers who cause the rest to act out along with them.
I think its honestly because ass whoopings have been pretty well phased out, or throwing like a marker board eraser at a kid. XD
They are light and wont actually hurt anyone.
Better to quit and not choose a job where you work with the kids some b!tch sh!t out into this world.
I can think of three women I know who only taught for one year, then quit.
@photag216 taught in the 90s, no difference in behavior than these kids are showing
You can't show weakness to students... they're ruthless.
As someone who works within the public school system, I applaud her. Kids these days have no respect for teachers nor support staff. The amount of things I see and hear on a regular basis is crazy.

I partially agree. But teachers need to start behaving respectfully. I have zero respect for teachers in public schools because they only strike for pay increases but never when the curriculum suffers and they know it. They never strike when a school district decides to lower its grading curve.
We actually had a mom of 3 terribly difficult children who were always causing trouble on the bus get a job as a bus aide at the bus garage. She said "How hard could this job be? I won't allow some little kids to disrespect me!"
She quit the first day on the job, right after the morning bus run! She couldn't handle it. 😂

As a teacher of ages 5 to 10, I can tell you that the bad behavior has escalated so much over the past 5 years. Kids are so disrespectful. They have no cares about learning anything. I have been told that they wanted to kill me. And the few students who do care and do want to learn have their learning stopped and disrupted so many times a day due to those students with bad behaviors that it’s a wonder that they learn anything. If people wonder why test scores are low and their kids aren’t learning it’s because of bad behaviors of them or others in their class.
And think of all the tax $$$$ that goes to schools. This country (US) throws millions of dollars at schools to "make them better". Ha. I don't think it's working. Overall, many kids are dumbing down.
This is why if students don't want to learn and be disruptive instead, they should not forced. They should instead basically be forced to do community service -- pick up litter, clean public toilets, do maintenance work. No pay.
This reminds me back when I was in my Spanish 2 class! Every day was a battle! Kids would never be quiet, they’d make fun of the teacher, they fool around! The worst part was i barely learned anything in that class, because of the constant disruptions. I luckily passed, however, the next year I was put in Spanish 3 and I didn’t know a single thing! It was horrible! High schoolers (16-18 year olds) acting like toddlers!
We need more drivers like this,my bus driver was tough as nails when I was young,I’m now 46
My last bus driver was named Helmut Bolt. A German living in Canada who didn't hesitate to stop the bus if he thought the kids were being ungrateful. I miss those days.
Is your bus driver still tough?
You didn’t dare, when we were coming up - You boarded the School Bus, & didn’t utter a peep, unless you were talking to your neighbor in the seat with you - If you did something bad, you could fully expect to be at least, suspended, if not expelled - If you were bad, don’t bother going home, just keep going ! Kids didn’t get away with much - There was a lot more Authority around back then & action would be taken against you - That’s why we have the problems that we have now - Bc of passive, unfit parents who expect the Teachers and School Staff to rear their kids for them - Everything is the Teachers Fault or the Public Schools fault - What about the unfit parents that are too unfit to raise their kids properly ?! What about Them ?!
DONT APPOLOGIZE! I am a middle school teacher and it is the worst job I have ever had. I am in my last 6 weeks and I'm done. I was recently reported by students for treating an 8th grader like a kindergartener offering stickers and candy if he stopped cursing and running around the classroom and scribbling on other kids work and could stay in his seat. I played toddler music and sat at his table and gave him one on one instruction for the rest of class. I would talk real loud and praise himfor following all the classroom policies. I am at the end of my rope. I was put on a behavior plan last year because I told a classroom of highschooolers they were acting like a bunch of A$$H0!=$. I promise you this bus driver was not out of line at all. These kids are terrible and they need to bring back paddling.
I got fired thanks to the little middle school angels ... They turned out the lights and sat trash cans on fire. One Angel ran out of the classroom with his pants open,screaming to the top of his lungs that " I SAed him." The other kids backed him up. I spent the rest of the day with the police. Finally, one kid told the truth. To this day, I'm still suffering from PTSD. One kid got a broom and busted it over my back. I ended up with lifelong pain and blood pressure that would not go down even under treatment. Luckily, I ended up getting disability. I had 7th grade students from ages 12-17. Yes, you heard right, age 17. I had about six students aged 16-18 in 7th grade, and most of them had a great relationship with the criminal justice system. I tried to keep them away from the younger ones. I found out that a substitute before I was assigned the job wasn't teaching the class but putting on videos and letting them sleep all day. She told the students to "act a fool, and they would run me off, and she would be back."
@@cynthiaconner8601 I believe everything you say. These kids are terrible.

Disheartening that parents think bus drivers should accept this sort of naughty behavior. Many school districts do not have a responsibility to supply buses at all.
You couldn’t pay me enough to be a school bus driver. My generation was awful even before social media…there are genuine sociopaths in many public schools who will eventually end up in the corrections system…you don’t want to be there
I completely agree. Teachers and bus drivers deserve more pay. I was lucky to walk to school when I was young but did have to ride the bus my last year since we moved and the kids were horrrrrrible. This was in the early 2000s. Just not raised right. Dogs at the shelters act better-!!
@@sabrinavang8024 Not enough money to take that job! You gonna end up spending all of it on legal fees to stay out of prison. Especially after you jump on one of those brats!
These parents remind me of the parents of the teenagers who broke into the home of retired NFL football player, Brian Holloway. They didn't just party in Mr. Holloway's lovely vacation home - they trashed it. BADLY.
Mr. Holloway had an idea, though - he would hold a big cookout for the kids, who would come over and clean up the mess they'd made in his house. He thought this would be a good way to teach the kids about consequences but yet, he wouldn't have to be a hard-a$$ about it, and he could perhaps salvage his relationship with the community and the parents.
Only one kid showed up. ONE, out of approximately a hundred. With his parents, who told Mr. Holloway that, although their son had assured them that he had NOT participated in any vandalism, he did go in the house & for the kid's (appropriately appalled) parents, that was good enough reason for their son to help clean up the God-awful MESS his friends had made of Mr. Holloway's lovely vacation home.
The rest of the kids' parents? They threatened to sue Mr. Holloway for cutting and pasting the photographs the kids themselves took, as they broke into and helped themselves to Mr. Holloway's liquor cabinet, kicked holes in sheetrock, threw up all over the place, stopped up the toilets, etc. You know - just "normal kid stuff", I'm sure that's what these indulgent, clueless parents told themselves.
But they became quite irate when the faces of their little darlings went viral, and their entire community was outraged that these teenagers, from affluent families, who lived in gated communities, should behave so badly, and, apparently, with the tacit permission of their clueless parents.
She sounds like sociopath!
Used to be it was Kids protected by adults now adults are cheering adults threatening physical harm on kids omg
Exactly. She chose her own job.

I remember kids on the bus being absolutely awful to my bus driver through middle school. He would have to repeatedly stop the bus to yell at the kids, but they would just smirk and keep on.
They smirk because they think it's a game.
Same here, I never understood it. Attention I guess? Or a sense of power? I just sat quietly with a friend and wanted to get home 😭😭 those bus rides home were always hell with kids like that. They’d skip down the aisle while we were on a highway or smth and throw shit out of windows. Embarrassing and no etiquette or respect for anyone
@@juliahewett7362
I doubt that would be allowed today. Haha.
@@XFizzlepop-Berrytwist We still do that when we can lol.. If they are our last route for the AM or PM we can just park the bus and wait until it is safe to continue to drive. If it gets really bad we can sit even if we have another route - we call it in and have it covered OR the other school has to wait for us to finally show up lol.. Nothing like having a High School call the Middle School and asking WTF your students are causing our Bus driver to be late.
Any Bus driver can stop their Bus if it is unsafe to continue. We have to judge if we should just return to the school and see about getting students taken off the BUS (if we can see who it is) I have stopped the BUS and I have returned to school.
In High School this works a treat.. The OTHER students will gang up the the problem children and tell them to stop fucking around or to shut the fuck up as they want to get home. I have even stopped my Bus and had the Police brought to the Bus to pull off an unruly student (even on the LAST day of School lmao that was priceless)
Let me guess, the students were disciplined by being told "don't behave like that" then they go home and tell their parents, parents call the school screaming "my kid would never do something like that!" Nothing gets done anymore, it's all mob rule and disrespect.
Likely. When I was a child, i knew not to do that. I knew my mom would tear my ass a new one. Nobody these days has any respect.
What would you like to happen bud? Should we line them up and taser them for “ using perfume “ welcome to the real word bud, people have just as many rights as you do and one of those rights is finding a job where you don’t willfully expose yourself to allergens. Lmao
Exactly, and they wonder why there is a shortage of bus drivers.
some parents are like that, but mine would yell at me. i despise parents who attack educators and public school workers and even sports coaches for disciplining their kids or just simply raising their voice at them
As a former bus kid those children 100 percent deserved that. Kids are terrible
I stand with MS JACKIE ✅Were sick of these kids and their ignorance along with their parents 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
Hello how are you doing?
I remember in school we had an older lady teacher that was allergic to different perfumes and the kids would consistently taunt her and spray stuff in class. Many kids have no guidance because their parents are non existent or don’t care. I feel for her. Sometimes we lash out when we’re angry. She had every right with the abuse she was facing.
It should be mandatory for the parents/guardians of these brats had to sit in class or ride the bus with their disrespectful spawn.
We had a bus driver who’d been doing the job for about 45 years before he passed away some years ago. He didn’t need the money as he was also a pretty successful farmer. He served with the 101st in WWII and didn’t take any shit. Once my 2 younger brothers wouldn’t stop acting up on the bus so he stopped, went back and made them hug each other all the way to school. When they told dad, he said they were lucky the driver didn’t crack their heads together like he did to dad and his brother when they rode the bus. To this day, anyone who knew him misses old Charlie.
I like that consequence lol
Wow that was a great story.. thank you.
So ole charlie let crack heads ride the bus. I think we can all learn something.
That’s funny 🤣
I had a bus driver she didn’t play….I miss her as well….she would walk you to your door… r kick u off the bus for a week…..thank you for sharing
We moved to a new city before the start of my senior year in high school and I was excited to finally get to ride the school bus 😅. Then I was so shocked at how horribly rude the kids were to the bus driver. One day they made her cried when one of the kids started yelling out questions like: “how many baby daddies do you have?”. We were all late to school that day because the superintendent had to give us a long lecture and warnings. After that, the kids were nicer to her. It’s so sad, lots of kids nowadays are so entitled and rude.
Awhh 😢
My mom was a bus driver for most of my life, and let me tell you what, these kids need the discipline.
How many baby daddies did she have?
@@danieldaniels7571 😆
I drove a school bus for 7 years and I can side with Jackie, school administration rarely backed up the driver. The school administration with their half ass to nothing discipline, I'd write up major things and repeat offenses from usually same trouble makers only to get parents cuss you out at stops, rude kids, and no support from the school b/c god forbid we inconvenience a student or parent, Plus the cameras mean nothing! They more interested in what the driver is doing. The lack of school support was the worse and #1 reason I moved on from this job. Thanks for all your great years of driving Jackie!!!
my parents even said if i acted that terrible to a teacher i will get all privileges taken away for weeks. i’m 12 and i know there is some TERRIBLE kids out there that have zero respect for teachers. i have so much respect for all teachers and public school workers. if you do fall in any of those categories, thank you so much i really appreciate it

My grandpa was a bus driver for over 25 years and the amount of crap he had to put up with was absoultly insane... I got to witness some of it when I was on his bus. Some people truly need to get a foot up their butt so it dangles out their nose 😂
This issue runs so much deeper than this y’all I quit my elementary school teaching job this year and it was the best decision I’ve made. Kids are horrible these days and it’s all their parents faults. Pandemic made people forget how to parent and kids forgot or never learned how to act right and have some sense. It’s such a huge problem. Expect anything and everything to do with working with children or caring for children get more difficult to access and way more expensive due to there simply not being enough of these services anymore. People don’t want to work with these pandemic kids, they’re way too out of control, disrespectful and also way out of our pay grade and area of expertise. It’s sad. I had a few kids I liked and tolerated but most of them were just annoying and never learned basic skills like keeping your hands to yourself, respecting your teacher and personal space. Like wtf were parents doing during covid? Clearly not parenting.
It was bad before covid, covid made it worse.
As a bus driver I know how she feels.
You can tell that she's not a bad person. These parents need to learn how to control their terrible children.
SHE IS NOT WRONG. She is responsible for those kids in her care. She needed to keep them safe. I stand with her.
The bud driver’s job is so important. Carrying children back n forth to school. The drivers should be able to give out detention slips to any rider not following rules, and acting rude. In the least kicked off the bus for a day or two.
Funny typo of course, but that busdriver was so steamed up in that vid, maybe bud driving is a better option for her nerves.
Detention means little to most kids anymore. They either ignore it or actually want detention so they can catch up on the school work they didn’t do because they were busy playing video games. They need to walk.
Yes! They should have the right to kick a rude person out of their work place
Bus drivers do have the ability to write up students for behavior issues in the bus. The problem is the school officials do nothing. The parents usually get a phone call from the principal but the parents scream and yell "not my kid! My kid would never do that! I'll sue the district if my child cannot ride the bus" And then the schools fold like a cheap tent and give into the parents. It's really disgusting.
@K8T We had students, 8th graders in middle school, that usually 2-4 were safety monitors on the bus.
If they reported the problem, parents were called in. Repeat offenders lost the bus privilege.
Then, kids walked to school or parents had to find alternative transportation. It solved issues because it was used.
I stand with the bus driver!
Me too
Not I tf u can't talk to kids that way
@@JoseSanchezdontyaknow Ya ever hear the way they talk to each other? Or the shit lyrics to the music they listen to! The crap they watch? How about the way they disrespect adults?

Man. Times have changed. In the 80s, school bus drivers would often yell and scold kids when they were misbehaving. Other than the profanity, she’s done nothing wrong and I commend her. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽‼️
I'm so sad I never yelled at so many people in my life - specifically Becky, Patty and Missy at Casis Elementary's 5th grade (Austin, TX) in 1963/64. And the 5th grade teacher was terrified of those girls, never said a thing - so we ALL suffered. I bet the nice kids on this bus were absolutely elated that this lady stood up not just for herself, but for ALL the kids on the bus that had to quietly tolerate the gross behavior and meanness of this 'core' group.
They “have to “ quietly tolerate it, all it takes for evil to triumph,is for good people to do nothing. They didn’t “have to “ sit there and do nothing all those times this old lady was bullied. Bullies get away with so much partly because of the amount of cowards in this world. I know standing up to bullies isn’t easy, I’ve done it more than once, but once you do,you quickly find out that bullies are the biggest cowards on earth
Correction, they DIDN’T “have to “ quietly tolerate it
Dang Cindy Lou, you can hold a grudge and I respect that
You should type those little b's names into Google and see how they have reaped what they have sewn. It would take you about 15 min to make yourself feel better and let that shizz go.
@@1c2h3e4u5n6g The other kids on the bus are probably terrorized by the little thugs as well.
Ten seconds into her comments and I can tell she’s a very decent lady who has had to put up with a lot of crap, probably from about 20% of these kids, while the rest are fine. She had enough and got pushed over the top. There is far less courtesy and respect for adults than there ever has been, although in Alabama, the kids are quite well-behaved overall.
I’ve been teaching for 29 years. I totally get this. Kids are out of control and it’s 100% the parents fault. When my last year of teaching comes along, I’m going to tell it like it is!
This is because the parents raised their kids to not accept NO for an answer and everyone gets an award. I remember some 15 years ago I was trying to study at the library (when I was growing up librarians still shushed people who were too noisy). These kids were running around screaming. I asked the librarian to tell them to stop. She said they could not because the parents would get really upset.
They let the kids do all that but expect the poor driver to say and do nothing!!!
bc they didn’t do anything. this is my school
@@glizzygobbler5250 i am.sorry they have failed everyone at that school... this is why i homeschooled and am homeschooling my kids... my kids will have respect and love and compassion for all humans ... this school failed the kids the teachers the community and all if this is their attitudes

I support her. I do security and these kids are no joke. I’m also glad that all the kids wasn’t black cause they would’ve called her racist. But I’m reality she is not racist these kids are just bad .
I support her too. These kids today are bad, these kids know this and they did it to upset her. We all support her.
I’m glad none were black, but every ethnic group have kids that you just wanna punch in their little fucking faces!!!
It’s horrible the way kids act now a days!!! And they pick on anyone who does not act like them!!! Forces good kids to be bad so they are left alone that is what kids are going thru these days it’s bad my daughter was beating up by a boy and he told the teachers I beat up girls my dad does it I will to!!! They have no boundaries anymore no good upbringing just thugs raising more thugs and they spoil them and they don’t earn or deserve anything
As a Black man, I agree with this comment
Probably, she wouldn't have said that to black kids. She would have genuinely feared being beaten or shot.
I drove the city bus in Stark County, OH for 8 yrs. and by far the absolute worst passengers were middle and high school students.
Someone needs to retaliate against these unruly kids, I had the unfortunate experience of traveling on a bus, top deck full of kids, it was a horrible and disgusting, I nearly lost it and believe me the kids of today fear no one and do as they please.
It’s not just her, all School district employees have to put up with disrespectful kids, That’s why Schools are so short of Staff. Good for this Lady 💪🏼
Hello how are you doing?
I as a bus driver have driven for a public school district of all aged kids and also for the mentally and physically disabled. I can tell you just like I told a bus load of middle school kids, the mentally and physically handicapped clients I have driven have more respect for themselves and others and also more sense than the “normal “ kids I have driven. It’s a shame how society is so accepting of this behavior and I feel it’s the breakdown of society.
💯
I believe it! IMO, bus drivers do not get the credit they deserve. They have to drive, monitor, and correct the kids all at the same time. Thank you for what you do!
Absolutely 100% spot on.
My mom had the same experience. the supposedly mentally handicapped clients had empathy. they would be concerned each day that her day was going well.
I would be so embarrassed if that was my child. Would take them to have them apologize in person to the driver
You see the behavior of these brats all over the city. Doesn't matter if they with an adult or not. This woman is probably a very nice lady, but when you have kids attacking teachers or spraying things in order to illicit a response, they got exactly what they wanted.
Agreed. And the so-called adults do not do anything to stop it.
@@4862cjc ln many cases, the fucking parents are a major part of the problem! One morning I had one calling me a fucking son of a bitch right in front of the school with all kind of other kids being dropped off.

I have been a Nurse for 35 years.. ventilator nurse.. ICU nurse... perfume spray can totally trigger a asthma attack and this lady could have gotten sick,need EMS and die.

No need to apologize Ms Jackie some of these kids are horrible on the bus and the driver can’t do anything about it… you just did what so many others want to but they are afraid to lose their job… Salute to you!!!
She said what all of us bus drivers have wanted to say for years
I love the empathy for her. I've seen how some young folks act on busses and it is horrifying and can be dangerous.
She seems like a very genuine and kind person . Those students should learn how to respect to eachother . It s very sad
Kind? Lmao. Making physical threats to a child, that isn't your own, isn't "kind or genuinely nice".
@@travelinman482 there is a boundary between being kind in general and defending yourself. While the students were clearly not respectful towards the bus driver. I will do the same if i were in her shoes. You shouldn’t always being kind towards who doesn’t value you and disrespectful to you once they cross your boundaries. otherwise : it only shows that you dont know what is self love and you show to the world even You doesn’t respect yourself . So i dont think you truly understand the motive behind her action
On the bus drivers side💯. When it used to snow back in the day, we'd scoop snow from the top of the bus and have snowball fights literally *on the bus* smh. Some people (not me I had home training) even threw snowballs at the busdriver! They get cursed out and everything else. Nobody knows what they truly go through. We should stand behind the people that take our kids to school💯.
Wow, someone finally stood up to unruly brats. They probably needed it!
About time someone told these kids cause there own parents won’t good for her
Im a substitute teacher and it can get TOUGH with middle school students. They can be really disrespectful and give you a hard time so I understand how she felt, it takes a LOT to restrain yourself from going off on them
Being a substitute is probably 10x worse than a teacher. Unless your a cool substitute. I had a lot of them. Except for 1, she would get upset easily and didn’t really have thick enough skin to handle some of the shit asses
No one wants to deal with these horrible kids these days not even the parents
We had the best bus driver when I was a kid . Vi, if you're out there THANK YOU ! There was no bullying , bull shit , or violence. Every year Vi gave the same speech : " I need the money and you need the ride . Now sit down and shut up ! " 😂😎😅 She also gave out Smarties , tissues and encouraging words , on our tough days . I would never except the responsibility of an entire neighborhoods children . Much respect to all school bus drivers.😘
'Smarties and tissues' ... I need that survival pack 😂
Good for her! 👏🏾 This is what's missing theses days. These kids are out of control.
I remember being in high school and middle school and looking back the bus driver didn't get much respect and i feel for anyone who does it.
i heard, idk if it’s true, that the driver submitted complaints ab the students and they did nothing. everyone should be on that poor woman’s side, the parents should be ashamed
Good for her. We need more bus drivers like this
OMG, threatening to beat kids up is what we need, wow
No, we just need parents to do their damn jobs and stop treating school like it's supposed to do the job of parenting. No way I could ever act like that on a school bus or disrespect an adult in general. My dad would have tore my ass up and then made me apologize.

If a student acts out in school, simply delete their mother's EBT food credit. All discipline problems will end immediately. Thank you.
I'm an older guy who isn't going to sit here and tell you that we didn't act like little bastards at times when we were kids. The big difference today (and the problem) is that if our parents saw this video, they wouldn't be outraged at the bus driver's behavior- they would be outraged at whatever behavior we engaged in that pushed this woman that far, and then probably ground us for a week.
And we'd but sure down for a year~1. Id also of been grounded for months. No TV, music etc etc.
My mother would have beaten me.
Yup! Parents and teachers had an understanding....I remember when kids didn't want a teacher to call their parents.
People always wanna talk about "back on my day" no one cares. The reason this is on tv and the internet is because that's what we have now. Teachers used to beat students who used their left hands, stop acting like people in the past were "better" they just had the excuse that people today have access to all this information when back then you could lie to people and it was completely okay and they believed it.
@Hailee Nowacki Nah, YOU don't care...and that's totally OK. But bus cameras and phones in classes were applied right in the early 2000s....bus drivers are mostly chill...its the kids acting up. And parents still haven't taken full responsibility of their bad azz kids like they would have handled it then....a parent KNOWS their child so they know who is lying or not. Especially, if that parent does not have a good relationship with the kids teacher and on their butts when they act out...
I've always believed that it takes a village to raise a child I'm on her side. I'm 60 now but when I was a girl if I misbehave on the bus I'd hear it from the principal the bus driver and then my parents😏
First of all if she was having an asthma attack she would not be able to scream at the students like that. She does not belong on a driving a school bus,she never did.I’ve been a School Bus driver for many years and even though the students can become a challenge never never SCREAM at them and use that type of language ,remember they are children they need guidance and direction .Right from the start let them know what you expect of them and do not faulted when you see an infraction It’s your job to make sure the behave and to keep them safe
A lot of kids are just plain rotten, even more so these days because the parents are trash.
Kids can be absolutely outrageous and will try to push people to the limit. I stand with the driver.
I love that her gofundme has been so successful.
this lady is LEGEND! The HERO we didn't know we needed!
Completing my bus driver training now. Kids seem nice and respectful, but you always get one or two. I would quit long before I'd reach the point of a meltdown like this.
We live in a small town area and have two friends who are bus drivers. They both talk about how bad so many of the kids are, just uncontrollable. My sister-in-law was an aide for years and quit because she said it wasn’t enjoyable anymore. The parents won’t back the teachers or anyone. We have people moving in from everywhere. It didn’t use to be this bad.
Nobody has time to be disciplining your bad ash kids. They're bullies and have no respect for authority. I hope this lady raises millions of dollars.
Is this in Massachusetts? That explains everything, as Massachusetts is the LAND OF CRAZIES. The kids are horrible (as produced by ultra-liberal twisted parents). Also, who did allow an ASTHMATIC patient to drive a school bus, in the first place? This is a felony on part of the HR or on part of the driver who concealed her ineligibility for all these years.
The kids that act up shouldn’t have bus privileges. They need to learn about consequences such as: Treat your bus driver poorly you will end up with no bus rides. It use to be that way and it was good for all concerned.
I support the bus driver!!! These kids today are completely out of hand
I suffer from that same allergy. I trained to work in a hospital because they are supposed to be scent free. It wasn’t and I was miserable. Our only option is to communicate this to whoever we are in close quarters with. Unfortunately, it makes some people retaliate and what they don’t realize is it literally can kill us. I want to buy a t-shirt ❤

I get her frustration. My wife wanted me to get a job as a bus driver a while back and I told her, I wasn't equipped to deal with kids like the ones this bus driver had to deal with. However, threatening and cussing at the kids is unacceptable. I understand that it just all came to a head, but did she try going to the principal? When I was in high school, there were a few bad kids and at one point, for 2 weeks, the principal or vice principal rode the bus in the afternoons because of it.
Many parents have abdicated their responsibility to discipline their children and then get upset when society has to do it
People like her are what we need more of. I think I was part of the last generation to have teachers and crossing guards and bus drivers that didn’t take any shit. I graduated high school in 2003.

We need more bus drivers like this that will not take any crap from these kids today that have no respect for their elders, because the parents don't want to discipline them and instill manners into them.

I wish my children had a bus driver that kept control over their bus vs letting kids go wild being disrespectful and abusive towards other students.
This was obviously a breaking point for that bus driver and she stood her ground.
Kids and parents don't like it 🤔
Then TEACH you kids some respect and decency 😡
Blaming the driver is a cowardly action for the parents neglect to educate their children on proper manners and respect 🙄
