speechless.
Not once but twice this poor kid was left on the bus. Shame on that bus driver and shame on the bus company for hiring such an idiot. |

1 The bus driver should really walk down the isle to see if anyone is still on the bus though. |

qoute from "common sense" - there are 2 forums for this one, so here is his qoute:
"Here we go again. Let's not start showing your teeth yet people. The girl is fine. Things happen. Don't overeact!" easy for "common sense" to say, this action is totally unacceptable! the same child 2x no less! i am sure he wouldnt feel that way if it was his/her handicapped child on the bus! |

A 4 year old on a school bus is actually very common. There are Pre-K programs that do pick up the kids on the busses. This gets them ready to ride the bus when they are in Kindergarten. My thing is, why, if your child was left on the bus once, would you allow your child to ride the bus again? I most certainly would not. |

1 Maybe because some parents NEED to get to work. My children take the bus only because the bus comes early enough to get me to work - Still I am 5 minutes or more late everyday. Some companies would fire employees for that. TIme are tough and keeping a job is tougher |

I'm curious as to "why" no one would be waiting for this child at their designated "bus stop"? If they were... apparently this bus driver is blind no less too! Seems odd to me that this bus driver doesn't know "where" this child gets off the bus? They apparently need to fire this person since he doesn't know who or where these kids are supposed to get off! Poor excuse on his/or part.

1 Given the lack of information in the story, we have no evidence that the driver did not make a check through the bus. Tracey mentions hanging a sign at the back of the bus to indicate it has been checked, but the article makes no mention that the driver failed to hang the sign. |

i dont know why they would put the child's name on the internet.
