I have been a bus driver since late 2006. I know the inside story, the scoop, the down low dirt of what it takes to be a bus driver, how to handle kids and adults, and how to survive on the "streets" so to speak. I used to have a blog, feel free to browse it or ask me a question here.

Can I ask the bus driver not to have my child to sit with another child? The other child is mean to my child. The child push my child up against the window. Should I call the bus company or ask the bus driver?

Is it true that districts place their bus drivers say the stricter meaner ones on more misbehaved routes and the ones that are more Lenient and nicer are put on better behaved routes

What is the worst bus you have ever drove?

So that being said a guy would have to be seated next to a girl and vice versa. She has other weird rules. Asking for someone else.

What other weird rules are you talking about?

One more sorry for blowing your email up. Or kindly tell them it is BS and their own personal problem. What do I do if something is or has been done but the parent insists it hasn't or is not good enough.

Asked by Lynn over 6 years ago

If the parent is being unreasonable, let them know they can continue the issue with your supervisor and shut the door in their face. Bus riding is a privilege not a right.
