kids these days have no respect for authority. how old are these kids, 12, 14? they need to go to boot camp and learn some discipline..

the bus driver didnt hit them first. the kid wouldnt calm down, he cussed at the driver, and challenged the driver. imo, when a kid does that to you, and talking wont settle him down, you have to use some force. of course this goes back to the issue of child abuse, but i wont go there.

boot camp ain't that a bit radical for a bunch of kids? i suggest death by lethal injection of air in the blood stream.
though i do miss the old days where teachers could beat of kids if they did something wrong, thought them a bit of respect. Most parents nowadays don't spank their child. No wonder kids are turning out like that. A good smack around the head is the best thing you could do for a child.

fackk, watching this video again, its really tough to imagine what I would do in that situation. your in a bus full of kids, a few of them are fucking with you, while some innocent kids have to watch you handle this shit. your an adult, and you need to act like one, but what do you do? do you just sit there and ignore them, while they keep harassing and maybe even get in your face, or do you do something about it? if the kids are smart, they probably have have their parents file a fucking lawsuit against the driver, and i highly doubt the driver would be seen as innocent in this situation. some kids are fucking worthless human beings, and its all because of their parents

The kid the bus driver hit first wasn't even the one causing the trouble. And you can't just hit someone because they mouth off at you.

I agree with you that he shouldn't have to deal with it, but is beating them up really the way to solve it? He'd called for an officer over the radio or something, he could have just waited for him to come.

This kinda happened on a bus at my school, except the kid hit the busdriver, then tried to escape out the window. He lasted a whole 3 days at our school before getting expelled :p

you mean the 12 year old kid who called the driver a "fucker"? Since when did that not constitute trouble? this kind of behavior isnt tolerated in any culture or country, its universal that respect is warranted and deserved by elders, regardless of the relationship.

That wouldn't do anything. First of all not much could happen to the kids for swearing or what not. They are kids. Plus they would settle down for time being and learn no lesson. But they probably didn't in any case. I can't wach the video because WMP is being gay but I think that North American upbringing these days leaves much to wish for ... it's too lenient and the society is soft. There are lawsuits for touching people etc. I know in Russia if you grow up being a little shit you'll get your face broken many a time and nobody will care.

but yeah anwyay here in the states some of our kids are little bastards

its because they were never educated, their parents were never educated either, and you can't really expect savage white trash to raise kids that aren't, well, savage white trash

and what's worse, the only people that could put these kids in check (school authority) literally have NO power whatsoever, since it has all been stripped away. the kids do whatever the hell they want because they know they can get away with it ( see in the end of the video the kid tells the bus driver "you're going to jail" ) school administration is a joke, suspension/expulsion is meaningless since the parents could care less, even worse some parents actually think their kids are in the right in these situations (like in this case, the interviewed attorney says the kids were "victims", victims my ass they are hooligans)

the only thing these retards respond to is physical violence, and administrators can't deliver, their hands are tied

the kids have the power and they know it.

isnt this old news by now? I remember maybe a week or so ago it was all over any and every newscast here in the US at least. From what I know the bus driver was charged with a misdeamoner and the kids got felonys because they hit a goverment employee, truth be told the fucking need some new ways to deal with kids on the bus, its just constant abuse they throw out there some times.

their should be a caged dog with rabbies at the front of the bus facing the students. That way when the kids act up the bus driver can jus slam the gate shut seperating him from the students and release the dog amonsgt the kids. I will be damned if they act up with a frothing pit bull staring at them through a cage :D

Jathin, I really doubt anything at all would happen to the kids. They would say "I'm sowwy I won't do that again" and what, they are really gonna get expelled for refusing to put on the seatbelt on once, or swearing? They could say it's a joke, they are sorry or whatever, and be back doing it again next time. That's how it happens in life as far as I know

Yes indeed. When there are a lot of little shits, they need to be disciplined. It's just really a shame that our CULTURE CONDONES being little shits. Of course from someone's perspective "what you consider being an asshole seems fine to me, don't oppress your views on me you racist fucker"

Yeah man...
I was jogging another day, and two kids of probably the same age as in the video start harassing me. Screaming "jogger" "gogogo left right left right" staying in a certain spot aruodn the track field that I constantly passed. First time I ignored them hoping they would stop, second time I got annoyed and asked them whether they needed something from me. After a while I just told them that it must have been long since they had their face broken and they ran away threatening to "call my dad"

no one is necessarily on the kids side, but the actions of the bus driver are just as, if not mroe deplorable then the kids. I mean what the fuck is wrong with you people, it is not ok for kids, yes prepubescent kids, to act like that, but it is ok for the bus driver to act like that?

In my opinion the bus driver handled the situation completely wrong. In America or rather in California any student in the bus that causes trouble and won't behave is automatically thrown out of the bus. Basically banned from using the transportation. All he needed to do is throw the kid out, not cause more trouble by trying to discipline them using force.

The bus driver was provoked, the kids were not. Considering he is 66 years old and taught proper respect for elders and authority at a young age, his nature demands the same. He didn't rape them or anything, I fully side with the bus driver. I watched the video.. it looks like we saw the culmination of the story. He sounded already pissed off in the beginning. Everyone has their limits. Jathin, I think if something doesn't fly in your school, it possibly can in others.

Covering the camera so we can't see how the kid is fighting the bus driver back with a machete... that's why the bus driver walked away so fast instead of finishing the kid

Theres plenty of kids who should get their teeth beat in for acting ilke that, problem is because of kids like that the general population has to suffer with stupid rules/laws that are aimed at the few and retarded

That's where knowing right from wrong comes in

But the bus driver doesn't have to know right from wrong?

Yeah the bus driver got more agitated than he should have, but in my mind, he wasn't that far in the wrong. He didn't injure any of the kids, didn't persist, didn't go berserk and walked away after making his point. In a moment of anger he gave the kids, what I feel they deserved.

The kids did something absolutely stupid for no reason whatsoever ... the bus driver did something explainable, if arguably inappropriate, when he was purposely made considerably upset. That's the difference

blah while i agree that people have limits the bus driver should have just waited for the deputy and have all the kids that didn't want to wear a seatbelt in the first place removed from the bus + show tape @ school with teachers so that their parents "educate" them.
It's not the driver's responsability to take education to the next level and his actions are not justified. Beeing arounds kids that age all day long requires a lot self control and maybe knowing how to aproach certain situations.

P.S. I was insane when i was a kid too. XD
Its really good to see that some people dont let education get in the way of their ignorance

I can't side with the bus driver at all. Those kids insulted him and were little shit heads sure. But they didn't touch him. The driver started using physical force when he shouldn't have, all those other kids should have jumped on him and fucked him up.

Internet warrior.

Im sure at the tender age of 13, the age when you are growing your pubic hairs, you were able to take on adults that weighed 100+ pounds more than you were.

I remember reading somewhere here that people's balls get 10x bigger behind a computer screen.

Newsflash the busdriver isnt your dad.

Just because your dad is a fucking loser doesnt mean you shouldnt respect the bus driver. Its because of things like this that stupid ass hoodlums go around thinking they can do whatever the fuck they want. Good job saying you would beat up the bus driver, he finally had enough and those stupid ass kids got what they deserved, their parents are obviously fucking morons. Saying that you won't respect "elders" because of your low life dad only further continues the cycle of violence and ignorance among the youth. By "respecting" them that does not mean you need to bow before them and kiss their feet, just do not be unreasonable and rude, seriously its common sense.

You have to keep these kids in line. The problem with our society is that the word discipline no longer exists.

first off you misunderstood what i meant. ill respect someone wether their older or younger than me, but im not going to just respect them cause their older, respect is earned not given. and the kid that was fighting is 15 not 13, chances are he really wouldnt of won, but he sure as hell should try, THE BUS DRIVER ATTACKED HIM.. what are you people not understanding, the bus driver attacked him, hes supposed to be the "adult".

thats also stupid, theres certain kids who need to get smacked around but theres definately some that don't. Practices like this only turns people into mindless drones. If someone questions your authority in an intelligent and orderly fashion, they should not be beaten or anything,thats just fucking stupid. But people who are just rude for no reason at all and contribute nothing should get smacked around ;d

what part don't you understand that he had finally had enough, you act like this is an isolated incident, im sure he had gotten shit for some time before that happened.

Respect be earned not given? You should show everyone respect, if its only earned then what exactly do you do, not respect someone and act incredibly rude the first time you meet them? What should happen is respect should be given until it is lost for a person when they do something as fucking stupid as those little snot nosed brats.

thats not something you should brag about in the first place.

i am sorry you have had to go through shit in your life but that doesnt mean you should take it out on other people. acting like that is childish and only further degenerates society as a whole and makes more of these little brats

what the kid did was totally wrong and as i stated before having witnessed incidents of bus drivers being tortued by kids (most of my friends) day in day out, i cannot blame the guy. I have friends who think like you but i sort of stopped hanging around with them, what you need to realize is that acting like this gets you nowhere and sometimes things just need to be dealt with, ya the bus driver was wrong but i cant say i feel sorry for the kid for getting grabbed by the neck and screaming like a little girl.

mental anguish day in day out is 100x worse than that stupid little brat getting grabbed by the neck, if you acted like that to the bus driver for no reason and got smashed in the head you deserve what you get. The kids provoked the bus driver and were being little trashy hoods.

oh im not saying the kids words were right, but the bus driver was completely wrong, he called someone, he should have waited for them. he had no right to put his hands on the kids. the kids should get punished for foul mouth i supopse by the school, but that driver deserves jail.

This thread isn't about WildCard's life nor do any of us know enough information about him to make any justified assumptions so why not just drop it?

That bus driver is man who probally dosn't get paid enough to deal with those kids. He asked them to put on their seatbelts - I've never had a bus driver ask me to do that - to care enough about my safety to do so. The guy didn't hit the children, he had to do something to control them because things were getting out of hand - he was left with no other option. The kids, on the other hand had two options, put on their seatbelt or punch him. They deserve to be prosecuted.

wtf, he can go for 1 year to prison for holding the kid? so how the hell do you discipline kids in school? we introduced "your" system and each year the schools get worse and worse

the bus driver should be able to hit the kid (so he would fall on the floor - people learn that way fast)


how can you discipline such little fuckers? maybe he walks around the class and cusses teachers too - they cant harm him - so they throw him out of school and what happens to the kid next? he goes to some sort of school for criminals where he can't be disciplined too and even meets friends - to form a gang?

I think that he should be able to hit that kid, just like in Korea. Of course it cant be abused, but seriously what are the options in such situations?
if I were the judge I would only punish the driver if he really hurt the kid or something (holding someone, or a single hit - isn't harming someone.. in such situation IMO)


"These boys are the victims and they have been from day one," Kirshy said. "The fact they got arrested was a mistake. That's clear."

yes the society harmed them

some of you i dont think realize what some adults do actually do to kids... im sure the kid was scared, how did he know the adult wasnt gonna try and choke him to death? in a situation like that you do what you have to, you have no clue what the other guy is thinking of doing... and yes i think its the bus drivers fault cause he started the fight i mean maybe in your countries, adults are more controlled and stop at a point, but here ive seen/heard stories of the kid really getting hurt... its not the same in every country, not every adult is "good" so to say some of them will really hurt a kid if they get angry enough and want to. words are one thing, but physical action is something totally different.

what you dont realize is that the bus driver didnt just run up and hit the kid for no reason, he kept mouthing off to him (probably for a long period of time and he just got fed up) and if the guy was scared of the bus driver and didnt think hed hit him maybe he hsouldnt have been such a little rude bitch in the first place

like i said the bus driver could call deputy, wait for him, ignore the kids, they werent touching him. the school and parents could handle that problem, thats not the bus drivers place.

Once again, how is it ok for a 66 year old man to act violently towards kids? Did the kids ever put their hands on him before the bus driver put hands on them?
And he had plenty of other options, none of which had to involve getting physical with the kids...
Were the kids rude? Yes
Were they disrespectful? Yes
Were they out of line? Yes
But so was the bus driver, and if he cannot handle kids goofing off, or kids being rude to him, then perhaps he shouldn't be driving a bus to begin with.

well your all saying the same thing, its the kids fault for mouthing off, but the kid didnt do anything physical to the bus driver... but whatever obviously not too many of you understand that based on the fact we were all "raised" differently, so ill just stop posting in this topic, you cant really change a persons opinion on certain things. hf~

for those of you saying that the bus driver should have waited for the deputy, i understand that reasoning. and of course, from an american perspective, makes sense. we have laws in this country that are different, from say korea, and hitting kids makes you look like the antogonist in 99% of these kinds of situations. yet if he just sat there and took all that shit from the kids, it tells the kids that he is basically helpless and he'll take the shit. this would spread like wildfire among the kids, maybe even the school. and lets say the deputy finally does come. who knows, the kids may start acting like little angels, and deny everything the driver claims they did. so they'll take a look at the video, but looks like its only a bunch of kids cussing and harassing the bus driver. maybe the kid will get banned from the bus, but charged with a crime?, hell no. we need new laws in this country that gives more authoritative powers for people in these situations, ex: pepper spray for rowdy kids. of course some may abuse their power, but i think its a risk worth taking

Yeah, WildCard, most people just take a side and defend it regardless of what they hear from others. THere are clearly two very different sides on this issue, like in many things, and I have not observed anyone in this thread changing their views. Maybe I'm in the same boat ... but I believe I have a point

You say that the bus driver was not acting like an adult, seeing as the kids did not lay a hand on him. But they were making a little riot, acting unbelievably stupid for no reason other than being full of themselves. Why does bodily punishment exist in the first place? Why do kids at a very young age get smakced around? It's hard to sit down with an infant and make him understand the basis of morals and ethics and why this and that is wrong. There are some things that cannot really be taught in other ways, or very very hard... such as common sense. It can hardly be explained ... the last time I was hit for discipline was when I was 4, maybe 6 years old. And From that young age, my common sense would not permit me to act the way those kids do. Those kids are acting like an infants; they are obviously a failure on their parents' part. It more or less makes sense to deal with them like you would with an infant

PS Heh, Solsito, I called this incident a "riot" too before reading your post

I agree with the bus driver. Seriously Kids are like this today because we are sooo relaxing on our discipline. And when a teacher has enough and fights back like this they get slapped around with lawsuits/jail time. This only lets the kids know that they have all the power and they can do whatever they want. People have to show these kids that they are serious and sometimes when they get THAT bad they need to be smacked.

Its funny some parents act like their kid's "backup" instead of their parents. They dont even consider that their kid could be in the wrong. but then again those people probably never consider that they could be wrong either.

theres definitely something wrong with those kids when they think they can get away with anything, abusing others etc. Someone has gotta stand up for themself eventually and teach kids like that a lesson.

I think a certain level of physical force (like restraint?) should be considered an acceptable defense against verbal abuse.

something you guys arent taking into consideration is this took place in Florida, they do things differently down there. When a punk 15 year old kid is acting like a faggot to a Bus driver, wearing his uniform probably been doing the job for like 45 years and its a hot florida day, he isnt going to take shit. So when he is out numbered 6-7 to 1 and the kids flat out wont listen to a damn word hes saying (when all he is asking themt o do is obide the law / protect themselves and buckle) and the kid stands up in a offensive fashion and says "Fuck you" to a bus driver who was verbally giving the last warning to a kid he had just called the cops on he sure as fuck might snap and detain the kid. Did he go to far? yeah he did. But i side with him fully. No fucking way were words going to work, and had he let that escalate and given in to the kids building confidence in their rebelious behaviour whos to say they wouldnt h ave done worse? His phsyical action was wrong, but given the conditions i just explained i think it was completely understandable.

Blatantly disrespecting a 66 year old professionally attired bus driver in the Florida hear with no regard for his pleas to obide the law can result in a slap, big deal? dont think so.

Sometimes not giving an ass kicking does more harm then good. And damn did that kid need an ass kicking.

Edit:

I just had to add, that yes, kids have all the power in our society and their elders are helpless to enforce any kind of discipline.

The bus driver should never have gotten out of his seat. Completely irresponsible behaviour. You should never let your personal emotions get in the way of doing your work.

I don't think violence is appropriate, unless inflicted upon you first. The bus driver should have stayed passive as long as the kids didn't directly disrupt his driving. In the case of disruption, the driver should stop and let the kid off the bus. Very simple logical rules. The driver could use the camera tape against the kids, by banning them from the schoolbus or similar appropriate punishment.

I have a brother at the same age as those kids, who uses abrasive language when teachers abuse their power. Although in a more sophisticated way, he points out how bad his teachers are at doing their job and how badly they've failed in life. Its the only way kids can "hit back" and I think its fine as long as they uses it as a response. In this case though, it doesn't seem like the bus driver was abusing his power, but rather that the kids were "shitheads".

what the bus driver did was wrong, however i can see his point of view, it would be hard to restrain yourself

i blame weak ass parents for stuff like this... irresponsible parents who don't know how to raise a kid :/

hell, my parents have basically let me make all decision myself since i was small and i've turned out just fine... it's because we treat each other with respect and understanding, the parents of kids like these probably just yell and scream at their children all day long when they do something long, so they enjoy the whole rebellious act, pissing off others...

I think the fact that the busdriver, after being punched multiple-times, by not fighting back, shows that his intentions for restraining the kids were not just acts of aggravation.

rofl this discipline shit was so wack.. even though these kids were only 14 or so.. i was expecting something far more serious for the bus driver to get up and hit them. In brooklyn this shit would be laughed at.. the fucking bus driver would laugh at being called a "fucker" and probably call them it back.. I've seen adults get fucked up for downtalking kids before.. this vid was so.. weak

I think your trying to say i generalized an entire states behavior, when in fact my quote is extremely vague and indirect, i never say anything that can be pinned as "generalization" because all i said was "they do things differently down there" that is so vague i love it. Do what differently? Down where? What am i even talking about? = direct verbal refutation.

HOWEVER what i intended to say was that they handle discipline differently GENERALLY than say a northern parenting couple from Beaverton Oregon. In florida its more typical to find a parent or adult who figures if a kid is being a jack ass he will get hurt. Is this 100%? Of course not, is this a rule? Of course not. Is it possible t find this ANYWHERE ELSE? of Course it is. Im making a comment on a stereotypical belief that is generally true. You also tried to hit my credibility, im not going to engage in a "i know more" battle because of "X" amount of time spent in a place or "X" amount of experience but i am fully qualified to speak on what i have realized to be true through EXPERIENCE.

Yeah the kids are obnoxious and probably deserved to be slapped but you live in a sue-happy country, its silly to do that, just fucking show the tape to the school and they will get expelled that will hurt 10 more than the slap he gave to the prick.

Im sure at the tender age of 13, the age when you are growing your pubic hairs, you were able to take on adults that weighed 100+ pounds more than you were.

I remember reading somewhere here that people's balls get 10x bigger behind a computer screen.

My kid? Any child I have will grow up with a brain and discipline so he can be ahead of the children his age, something my parents never did for me. I was a brat growing up. When I look back, I really really wish I could just go back in time and cause myself as much pain as I knew I was causing others. I'm not even slightly worried about any child I have acting up at that age. But if he/she pulls the same shit those kids in the video did, and the bus driver takes action, the only thing I could possibly do is tell him/her "You'd better be glad I wasn't there when it happened."

yes, otherwise the kids grow up and think that they can do what ever they want. They really need to get slapped sometimes. Im glad that I did get slapped sometimes!

Everyone supporting the kids needs to get a fucking clue. Who gives a shit if they got a little bruise from the bus driver? Do you realize how much hell they're going to cause to other people if they're allowed to abuse other people without consequences?

And do you honestly think the deputy was going to teach them a lesson? Or the school board? Do you really think the kids are afraid of being suspended or expelled? Do you really think their parents will care enough to make a difference? The next time they feel like pissing other people off, are they going to restrain themselves out of fear of punishment, because of what the deputy, school board, or their parents did to them (if they did anything at all)? Hah, yeah right.

At that age, there's only 3 things that are going to prevent those kids from misbehaving: empathy, conscience, and/or fear of punishment. Obviously no realistic action is going to teach them empathy or develop their conscience (who would make the effort to do it, if it's even possible at this age?), so the only option left is to leave them in fear of the consequences. And taking action the way the bus driver did is the only way to instill that fear.

Remember, a LOT of people will be impacted by these kids as they grow up. Raising a little shit into the world will cause hell to a lot of other people, and may even cost some people their lives (e.g. drunk driving). For the good of the people that those kids will interact with in the future, I say they need to be punished, in a way that will make them afraid of screwing up in the future. Unfortunately, our pussy laws prevent this from being done effectively, but at least the bus driver gave it his best shot (without using excessive force) and may have left a lasting impression.

These kids NEED to be traumatized: they need to fear the consequences of pissing other people off. At their age, it's the only way they'll learn.

It's still a matter between you and your kid and not the driver and your kid and you know it zia
I am not questioning your parental skills, i question your reply where you say

Anyone who says "that's wrong, they don't know any better" is going to be one shitty parent.

because it's obvious that you support the driver's actions. Bus driver drives the bus and you are the one who educates your kid after seeing the video mkay?

The fact that the kids might be irresponsible little brats that will grow up to be assholes, is irrelevant. Its not the bus drivers job to discipline the kids. That's up to the parents after they've been notified of the happening and shown the tape.

He should take them off the bus, but only if they interfere with his ability to perform his duty.

The bus driver has no authority in any matter that isn't related to safety of the kids, and in the case of emergency.

Bill307 using fear, violence and other crap is not as educational as you might think. They are children and not adults for a reason.

Getting them out of the bus for refusing to put on a seatbetlt is a perfectably accepted punishemnt. Also sending the videotape to their school to be reviewd by their parents.

Kids get off the bus:
1)he goes home makes up some shit about the school bus driver hating him, parent investigates sees videotape
2)he walks to school. lesson learned after walking it 9999 times.

If he did that I would fucking murder him. Now, I didn't hear what they said (it's late, can't turn the volume up very high -_-) but to me the busdriver was acting pretty threatening, and the guy who got up was the kid who was being threatened's brother. Wtf.

He didn't even do shit, except probably told him to get away from him or something -_-

Look, I fucking hate retarded kids and they probably deserve to get beat up.. But to grab some kid by the throat? Excuse me? What the fuck is that?

He should be fucking fired.

Btw, I don't know what kind of spanking you people seem to be in favour of, but unless it's hard enough to make you afraid - which is B A D - I can't see ANY reason that would have helped calm me down as a little kid, I'd probably have stopped for 30 seconds, anger taking over, go at it again.

So you going to hit me harder now? Yeah. Great idea. And what if that doesn't work? Harder still?

Shitty idea -_-

The kid the bus driver hit first wasn't even the one causing the trouble. And you can't just hit someone because they mouth off at you.

A person shouldn't have to deal with that shit - I hope he sues the kids for distress.

I agree with you that he shouldn't have to deal with it, but is beating them up really the way to solve it? He'd called for an officer over the radio or something, he could have just waited for him to come.


That wouldn't do anything. First of all not much could happen to the kids for swearing or what not. They are kids. Plus they would settle down for time being and learn no lesson. But they probably didn't in any case. I can't wach the video because WMP is being gay but I think that North American upbringing these days leaves much to wish for ... it's too lenient and the society is soft. There are lawsuits for touching people etc. I know in Russia if you grow up being a little shit you'll get your face broken many a time and nobody will care.

One word: Androide

;p

I guess that is because he's rich though..

Hm. "Hey motherfucker" is pretty fucking retarded to yell at someone acting the way the busdriver did --

But the man's 66.
Sixty.
Six.

Anyone who says "that's wrong, they don't know any better" is going to be one shitty parent.

because it's obvious that you support the driver's actions. Bus driver drives the bus and you are the one who educates your kid after seeing the video mkay?

Hmm shit I hate when I'm wrong.

I think Radu's right. The kids should be disciplined by being forced to do something they dislike (i.e. get up early and walk to school) by higher authorities. Why not violence instead? Because the kids are also going to learn how to "discipline", or more appropriately, how to deal with people who piss them off. The more we use violence to discipline them, the more they will use it against others. The same goes for appealing to a higher authority, except I think we can all say we'd have fewer problems with the kids doing that instead of using violence.

So, as much as we loved seeing those kids getting what for (my only regret at the time was that he didn't kick the kid's ass), the bus driver probably should have waited for the deputy (sedating himself with the thought of the kids having to behave or else walk to school from now on) and had him escort the little brats out of the bus.

What if the parents, school, and police fail, like some undoubtedly do, and don't take enough action against the kids? What if the parents simply drove the kids to school from that point on, never teaching them a lesson? What if the bus driver has had to put up with their crap for a long time? What can he do? Maybe a little bit of violence was the answer, if only to draw attention to the situation and force the parents and the school to deal with it. I really don't know: I'd have to think about this some more.

I'm not clear on the American laws that are relevant in this situation. In Denmark the laws somewhat resemble my opinion of this matter. In other cases, not.

As you may know, there is close to no crime in Denmark - about ½-1 homocides a year. The laws in Denmark prevents you from abusing your physical power upon a child, but on the other hand, nothing really happens if you do. Unless, its an extreme case of violence. You won't get sued out of your ass. We have alot of "you are not allowed to do X" laws, but there is no penalty for actually breaking it. Our society, relies heavily on pragmatism. While this may seem highly controversial, you can't argue with the low crime rate, that is a result of it.

There are a couple of reasons it works out better here, though. For example, the high welfare, free: insurance, medical help, education, right to vote. Voting is considered a citizens duty, and people who don't vote are "frowned" upon(it is very easy to vote, you get a voting ticket in the mail and you use it at the local voting booth). Everyone has a chance in the society, even if you are a pedophilic alcoholic, there is a program you can attend(for free).

There is a cultural difference, but in the end we all just want to be respected. It is the kids right to express their opinion towards the bus driver, as long as they don't interfere with his driving, as it is the bus driver's right to express his opinion towards them.

You can do what you want, as long as you don't take that freedom away from others. When the kids calls the bus driver a "fucker", and he gets mad, its his own problem.

FA. Its a different culture.. In Sweden or Finland the bus driver would have gotten fired instantly. His actions were mild in american scale but as a Finn all I could think was 'HE GRABBED HIS THROAT! HE FUCKING GRABBED THAT KIDS THROAT' But after reading some of the comments here and thinking about kids carrying knives/fire arms in schools in u.s and the, sometimes, ridiculous seeming safety precautions I think what he did wasnt that harsh. In Finland, School shootings/stabbings happen ... once in 20 years? Iam happy to think that here teachers dont have to fear kids carrying weapons and in the meantime I can see just in the busdrivers actions..

LetMeBeWith we can all agree that you are a fat kid who actually benefits from not getting into that bus because:
1)You will get some exercise
2)You will learn to behave in the end and then get to ride the bus and maybe make a friend!
Its really good to see that some people dont let education get in the way of their ignorance

How oxymoronic. You should have considered not taking the bus, in the first place. I normally disregard babble like yours, but it was slightly funny, and could have been the foundation of a good joke.

Yeah, to use me as an example I was only grounded once in my life and it wasn't even enforced that day. I was never beaten or hit, I was yelled at a few times but other than that I was never disciplined. I have never been in a fight with anybody in my life and I have never been rude to someone elderly. Sure, I've felt oppressed sometimes but I have never felt inclined to engage someone over it. My brother and sister on the other hand are much more anti-authority than me even though we all grew up under the same roof.

Also, everyone of my friends who had parents who disciplined them in that manner or even excessively grounded them ended up being very disruptive and violent. ;p

Aye, the Bus driver is to be pitied... There are a way to classify a teacher into four categories...

Type 1 teacher has the ability to keep the kids quiet with out even trying it. They got the tough look and normally talk the student down in the first day. Students hate him but dont dare to provoke him because he looks ready for the kill.

Type 2 cannot control the students properly, he's usually the kind of nice person but abit dim. His face isnt so serious so that student think he is an easy person, and he normall does not take it hard on them in the first time, so the student take it further and further till it's hard to keep them inline anymore, so he has to use some physical stuff to retain order.

Type 3 They are intellegent and humorous, use forces correctly every time and students like him. He is able to nullify the disrespectiful ones from getting out of hand and is able to treat the other nicely. He makes the student actually see the value of his position and student respect him out of respect.

Type 4 They are weak and feeble, unable to do anything but lecture or perform their duties, might be a good teacher of student keep in line. But once student gets out of hand, there is nothing he can do about it but to keep talking while no one listens.

All four can be found in your past hopefully
P.S I think Harry Potter the book use them pretty well too...

Hey, I did not say it was universal. But in my short life, the kids who have been beaten or excessively disciplined ended up worse than kids who were given at least a little bit of leniency. Also, I think this is more a result of culture than lack of discipline.

Let's put this in a different perspective:

Same situation, middle school / high school classroom. Rows of desks. Florescent (sp?) lighting. Slackers, nerds, normal kids, failures, etc.

Kid in the front row is talking, disrupting everyones learning, being disrespectful. Teacher goes over to the student, tells him to be quiet, puts work in front of him. Kid in the back row starts saying stuff. Teacher walks back there to discipline that kid. Kid in the middle row stands up right by the teacher and says "Hey motherfucker..." Teacher grabs the kid by the throat and throws him into his seat, classroom goes into chaos.

I don't know about Florida but in Michigan if the teacher grabbed that kid by the throat and threw him into his seat, he/she would be fired no question. The teacher had other choices just like the bus driver had other choices. The bus driver already called the police, the teacher could have called school security. If the 12-14 year old doesn't get scared driving home in a fucking cop car, the bus driver sure isn't going to scare him by grabbing him. Bad parenting? Definately. Bad behavior? Yes. Do they deserve to be slapped? Yes. Should the bus driver have slapped them? No.

Anyone ?

imo, when a child at that age addresses you as fucker, that is more than just a slap to the face, its more like kicking you in the groin when your already down. being called a fucker by a 12 yr old is not only shameful, it puts you in a situation where others will immediately follow through and begin calling you "fucker". that shit has to be stopped, and theres no other way than immediate discipline. i agree, grabbing him by the throat is a bit extreme, instead, the bus driver should have handcuffed the kid, or somehow restrain him, put duct tape over his mouth, and put him in the back of the bus, WITH force, to put fear and to make others know that he is in charge. waiting for the deputy would have intensified the situation; the kids were obviously inclined on harassing this driver until he did something about it. personally, if i was the driver, i would just have stepped off the bus, lock all the exits, and peacefully smoke a cigarette, waiting for the deputy. then, let fate take its course..

That's a horrible video.
Even though it was wrong for the bus driver to beat up the kid, I would have done the same thing as him in that position. The bus driver's reaction to the kid was totally understandable, and in a perfectly fair world, both the kid and bus driver would be punished, the kid getting the more severe punishment.
But that's just how I think of the situation.

A good move the the bus driver could have made would have been to pull over and remove the kid from the bus, and just drive away. Students can also be restricted from riding the bus in the future, as well.

IMO the kid got what he deserved, but was it the bus driver's position to use physical force? No. Like taeWook said earlier, the driver should have just locked the bus down, smoked a cigarette, and waited on the deputy to get there. When I was in middle school (grades 7 and 8), I witnessed verbal abuse by students towards the bus driver on a frequent basis. Did the driver curse back? Sometimes. Did the driver physically restrain a student? Never. They would always get a higher authority and have them kicked off the bus. If the parents tried defending their child the video tape would be shown to them.

On the other hand, if one of those kids physically attacked the bus driver first, I don't think it would be that big of a problem. The reason I say that is because there were many of them compared to one 66 year old bus driver. They might be young, but a group of them could have seriously hurt him. If this were the case then I think physical restraint would have been about his only option in order to defend himself.

The fact of the matter, though, is that all they did was verbally abuse him and he used physical force against them... force that I feel wasn't necessary. Sure the punk ass kids deserved it, but I feel that there are better ways to have solved this. Now the bus driver's lack of judgement may cost him his job.

No.

In the bus, if students continue to act up, it becomes a danger for the driver, students, and cars around.

Plus, I have no problem with beating the shit out of 11 year old stuck-up pricks who think no one is allowed to touch them.

just wondering..someone mentioned that when they were hit, they just grew more angrier. physical punishment seemed to work for me, but if physical punishment doesn't work for some kids like that one on the bus, what do we do to make them human? ~_~

An obvious argument comes up that this could make them angrier just as well...
I think it's too late for these kids to be simply disciplined. They are too old for routine physical punishment. They can understand language well and it should be possible to reason with them. But getting beaten for a disrespectful mouth is certainly a valuable lesson in life. One of many I hope they get

K more insight from the inc-god-ontrol:

1. cod apparently you were the only one to struggle with my post, result in Washington public education, i dont blame you, it will pass.
2. You guys act like their was a serene bus ride, and a child made a boo boo on the rules, so the bus driver grabs his throat and slaps him. Try, TRY TRY to visualize the world i paint for you. The bus driver is alone, out numbered and to old to physically handle a bus of hoodlums. One kid REFUSES to comply with the bus drivers request to OBEY THE LAW and buckle. The other kids begin to chime in and escalate the situation (watch the video). The bus driver repeatedly asks the child to comply, using verbal requests. The bus driver than PHONES THE COPS typically the gravest punishment a kid can receive (in their mind). The kids continue to escalate in movement and disobedience, tension mounts. The bus driver decides words are not working and moves to the back of the bus (this is in hind site a mistake, he shouold have waited for the cops, however moving to confront the kid isnt wrong in itself it was simply unnecessary) to confront the antagonizer. A kid he cannot see jumps out of his seat behind him and shouts "HEY MOTHER FUCKER" i dont know how many nerds here have been in an actual chaotic/fighting situation but when someone behind you shouts "Hey mother fucker" its never to share pringles. The bus driver (66 fucking years old, hes from the vietnam era where people didnt listen unless their was a gun in their face) snaps. He is outnumbered, he is frustrated and he is risking losing complete control of a bus of kids w ho have already displayed they lack any care for rules. He grabs the kid by his throat (one of the most powerful submission moves possible) and slaps the kid. He could have choked him had he wanted to inflict actual pain, he could have closed fist punched the kid and knocked his face in, instead he uses complete submission moves, slap to daze and throat grab to force surrender. Once the kid was subdued and began crying like a bitch, he released and backed off. Was the kid hurt? No more than a brotherly fight. This wasnt a situation in which thought out and meditated responses were engaged, this was a heat of the moment decision that a 66 year old man did, i believe he was fine to do as he did.

The next time your old, your bones creak and you cant get a boner. Remember this, if you are outnumbered by younger and out of control kids, what will u do? If one jumps up behind you and makes a threatening scream, you going to turn around and ask him to please sit down? Or you going to pre emptively pacify a situation that could escalate to god knows what.

disciplining people through violence doesn't teach them what they did wrong, it teaches them to respond with violence when people misbehave towards them.

might teach them not to misbehave towards the guy who hit them, but not on a general level.

I am extremely opposed to how the busdriver responded regardless of whether the "kids deserved it" or not.

parenting has it's flaws everywhere, definitely among american parents as well. but disciplining kids through violence is wrong. period.

if I know a guy will beat me up if I call him a fucker I won't call him a fucker. but my reasoning is not that I respect him, in fact I would completely lack respect for him.

and yeah they're understandable, but very very wrong nonetheless.

yeah the drivers actions weren't good, but its understandable, although he would regret it afterwards

its easy for us to download a clip and make comments whats wrong whats right blah blah but that guy would have been under a lot of pressure, being there being him is very different and i think everyone has a boiling point and i guess he reached his

and about using violence to discipline kids, for some people there's no other way, they wouldn't respect the teachers/elders anyway but at least have [edit] them [edit] under SOME control with fear

and if a kid was a good kid then violent methods of discipline wouldn't be an issue

i think it depends how young you use violence. if you use it early enough they could learn to respect you later and not realize why. using it on an adult obviously would just have the effect Drone says.

besides, parental respect isn't the same as literal respect anyways is it? it's like parental love. it is just assumed. it's taboo not to have. you have it as long as you are willing to pretend to. it's not a feeling and it's not earned. so in that way, violence is consistent with this still. i can't even imagine what life would be like if i actually did feel love and respect for my parents -- or worse, if they had earned it.

Hmm shit I hate when I'm wrong.

I think Radu's right. The kids should be disciplined by being forced to do something they dislike (i.e. get up early and walk to school) by higher authorities. Why not violence instead? Because the kids are also going to learn how to "discipline", or more appropriately, how to deal with people who piss them off. The more we use violence to discipline them, the more they will use it against others. The same goes for appealing to a higher authority, except I think we can all say we'd have fewer problems with the kids doing that instead of using violence.

So, as much as we loved seeing those kids getting what for (my only regret at the time was that he didn't kick the kid's ass), the bus driver probably should have waited for the deputy (sedating himself with the thought of the kids having to behave or else walk to school from now on) and had him escort the little brats out of the bus.

What if the parents, school, and police fail, like some undoubtedly do, and don't take enough action against the kids? What if the parents simply drove the kids to school from that point on, never teaching them a lesson? What if the bus driver has had to put up with their crap for a long time? What can he do? Maybe a little bit of violence was the answer, if only to draw attention to the situation and force the parents and the school to deal with it. I really don't know: I'd have to think about this some more.

It's a KID.
The busdriver shouldn't give a FUCK what that kid is saying, when the kid said whatever he said, he should just have looked at him, walked back to his seat and called someone to get him off the bus.

Simple as that. The fact that what some little kid said to him got to him so bad, IMO, shows that he is pretty damn insecure for his age :/

And for all you people saying "Oh this is all because they don't get spanked".
Wrong.

This is because nowadays parents don't have the time to raise kids AT ALL.

FA. Its a different culture.. In Sweden or Finland the bus driver would have gotten fired instantly. His actions were mild in american scale but as a Finn all I could think was 'HE GRABBED HIS THROAT! HE FUCKING GRABBED THAT KIDS THROAT' But after reading some of the comments here and thinking about kids carrying knives/fire arms in schools in u.s and the, sometimes, ridiculous seeming safety precautions I think what he did wasnt that harsh. In Finland, School shootings/stabbings happen ... once in 20 years? Iam happy to think that here teachers dont have to fear kids carrying weapons and in the meantime I can see just in the busdrivers actions..

Does that really make sense? I mean if he grabs the kids throat, and the kid's got a knife....

Didn't he just put himself in a situation where his entire body is 1 inch away from a potential knife?

imo, when a child at that age addresses you as fucker, that is more than just a slap to the face, its more like kicking you in the groin when your already down. being called a fucker by a 12 yr old is not only shameful, it puts you in a situation where others will immediately follow through and begin calling you "fucker". that shit has to be stopped, and theres no other way than immediate discipline. i agree, grabbing him by the throat is a bit extreme, instead, the bus driver should have handcuffed the kid, or somehow restrain him, put duct tape over his mouth, and put him in the back of the bus, WITH force, to put fear and to make others know that he is in charge. waiting for the deputy would have intensified the situation; the kids were obviously inclined on harassing this driver until he did something about it. personally, if i was the driver, i would just have stepped off the bus, lock all the exits, and peacefully smoke a cigarette, waiting for the deputy. then, let fate take its course..

You do realize that your last line is COMPLETELY different from the others =[?

That's a horrible video.
Even though it was wrong for the bus driver to beat up the kid, I would have done the same thing as him in that position. The bus driver's reaction to the kid was totally understandable, and in a perfectly fair world, both the kid and bus driver would be punished, the kid getting the more severe punishment.
But that's just how I think of the situation.

....
There is a reason why we don't put kids in jail, especially not 12 year olds. And that reason is that most of them are too dumb to realize what they are doing -_-

Now, if someone behaves like that towards someone of a similiar age, I wouldn't care if he got beaten up, but I would expect this guy, who's 66, to be able to ignore this asshat and just chuck him off the bus...

He's 3 times his size, AT LEAST. All I could think of watching that video is that I wanted to jump in and hit the busdriver over the head. You do NOT grab a 12 year old (or 15 year old whatever) by the throat because they called you a motherfucker.

K more insight from the inc-god-ontrol:

1. cod apparently you were the only one to struggle with my post, result in Washington public education, i dont blame you, it will pass.
2. You guys act like their was a serene bus ride, and a child made a boo boo on the rules, so the bus driver grabs his throat and slaps him. Try, TRY TRY to visualize the world i paint for you. The bus driver is alone, out numbered and to old to physically handle a bus of hoodlums. One kid REFUSES to comply with the bus drivers request to OBEY THE LAW and buckle. The other kids begin to chime in and escalate the situation (watch the video). The bus driver repeatedly asks the child to comply, using verbal requests. The bus driver than PHONES THE COPS typically the gravest punishment a kid can receive (in their mind). The kids continue to escalate in movement and disobedience, tension mounts. The bus driver decides words are not working and moves to the back of the bus (this is in hind site a mistake, he shouold have waited for the cops, however moving to confront the kid isnt wrong in itself it was simply unnecessary) to confront the antagonizer. A kid he cannot see jumps out of his seat behind him and shouts "HEY MOTHER FUCKER" i dont know how many nerds here have been in an actual chaotic/fighting situation but when someone behind you shouts "Hey mother fucker" its never to share pringles. The bus driver (66 fucking years old, hes from the vietnam era where people didnt listen unless their was a gun in their face) snaps. He is outnumbered, he is frustrated and he is risking losing complete control of a bus of kids w ho have already displayed they lack any care for rules. He grabs the kid by his throat (one of the most powerful submission moves possible) and slaps the kid. He could have choked him had he wanted to inflict actual pain, he could have closed fist punched the kid and knocked his face in, instead he uses complete submission moves, slap to daze and throat grab to force surrender. Once the kid was subdued and began crying like a bitch, he released and backed off. Was the kid hurt? No more than a brotherly fight. This wasnt a situation in which thought out and meditated responses were engaged, this was a heat of the moment decision that a 66 year old man did, i believe he was fine to do as he did.

The next time your old, your bones creak and you cant get a boner. Remember this, if you are outnumbered by younger and out of control kids, what will u do? If one jumps up behind you and makes a threatening scream, you going to turn around and ask him to please sit down? Or you going to pre emptively pacify a situation that could escalate to god knows what.

That kid would have sat his arse down had he looked at him the wrong way, couldn't you fucking tell that -_-?

And you say he's 66 so he's entitled to that kind of shit, I say he's 66 so he's not entitled to that kind of shit. It would have been faaaaaaaar more effective to just get out (the bus wasn't moving ffs), waited for the people that CAN handle this to arrive.

Not only would this a) make the other kids pissed at the one behaving like an idiot because now they'll get in trouble for being late + will be boooooooored until whoever gets there and might get in trouble with their parents and b) he would keep his job.

eh i know i said i wouldnt post here but i need to say this. physical abuser doesnt teach shit.

when i was younger and misbehaved my mom would hit me, pull hair, ect. same with step dad, one time i broke out in a fight with him i got my arm and leg cut up. physical violence isnt the answer. trust me i still live at home cause im still a "kid" (17) but i want to get out of here so fucking bad. its funny tho, how my parents are fucking cowards. when i was younger theyd hit me for being bad, cause they know i couldnt/wouldnt do anything back. now when im older i do something bad (like the time i pulled a knife on my step dad for threatening me) they always are like "GO AWAY, DROP IT OR ELSE WERE CALLING THE COPS ON YOU!!". so yah, physical violence really wants to work, i mean it was used on me and im "so well behaved". all it made me wanted to do is kill them both.

on the other hand, my grandmother used a respectful way of teaching, she used to sit me down and explain to me what i did was wrong and why i shouldnt do it, she never put a hand on me, and always showed she cared alot for me and until the day she died i had the utmost respect and care for her, heck i woulda pretty much did anything for her. my mom/step dad on the other hand (like i said) id like to see shot.

Physical violence without a proper procedure would never work in child upbringing. For example, If you're to cane your child you should properly explain what he/she did wrong and why they deserve it. Moreover bare hands are not recommeneded, My parents used to hit me with a ruler on the palm when I was really young, and when I got a bit older, it was my calf with a stick.
Of course punching your child in the face out of the frustration is not a sensible thing to do, but desciplined punishement will do him good.

They are cowards for not fighting you when you pull out a fucking knife? They sound like horrible people but most people in the world would react that way to a knife +_+

Hitting someone in a 'discipined' way, to me, sounds so incredibly degrading and humiliating.

How would you like it if someone did this to you as an adult?

those kids have some serious issues and imo it's obvious their parents have failed (doesn't mean it's their fault - some things are unavoidable). I don't mind it so much what that bus driver did, it was hardly damaging anyway and I think they need to be taught some manners anyway.

Let's put this in a different perspective:

Same situation, middle school / high school classroom. Rows of desks. Florescent (sp?) lighting. Slackers, nerds, normal kids, failures, etc.

Kid in the front row is talking, disrupting everyones learning, being disrespectful. Teacher goes over to the student, tells him to be quiet, puts work in front of him. Kid in the back row starts saying stuff. Teacher walks back there to discipline that kid. Kid in the middle row stands up right by the teacher and says "Hey motherfucker..." Teacher grabs the kid by the throat and throws him into his seat, classroom goes into chaos.

I don't know about Florida but in Michigan if the teacher grabbed that kid by the throat and threw him into his seat, he/she would be fired no question. The teacher had other choices just like the bus driver had other choices. The bus driver already called the police, the teacher could have called school security. If the 12-14 year old doesn't get scared driving home in a fucking cop car, the bus driver sure isn't going to scare him by grabbing him. Bad parenting? Definately. Bad behavior? Yes. Do they deserve to be slapped? Yes. Should the bus driver have slapped them? No.

Anyone ?
Perfectly said.


No.

In the bus, if students continue to act up, it becomes a danger for the driver, students, and cars around.

Plus, I have no problem with beating the shit out of 11 year old stuck-up pricks who think no one is allowed to touch them.


What the kids did was very wrong but the driver wouldn't have been in danger if he had waited for help or made the kid leave the bus. The students weren't in danger except of getting home late. The cars around weren't in danger because the bus was parked. If you have no problem with beating the shit out of eleven year olds who think no one can touch them (which is most of the eleven year olds in our country) that's your opinion. The fact is that in our society when an authority figure (teacher, preacher, adult) hits/grabs a child they are in trouble 99/100 times wether the kid deserved it or not. The 66 year old bus driver knows that and still, even in an intense situation, lost control or consiously decided to act that way. I think that's wrong.

I agree, if you respect children and treat them with respect then they will respect you and thus be more inclined to listen to you.

To grab someones throat is something I learned to do by default, on the other hand I had a little rough time because of my temper back in early school days, once it was found out I could go into a rage sort of state someone found it very funny to bring that forth in me, hence since I learned the art called: Grab them by the throat and they turn from being predator eyed into sheepeyed.

All in all, if you want to realy scare someone, grab them by the throat, nothing seem to work on such a instictive level of fright as being grabbed around the throat ^^
Just because you can now store where everyone was and is, what they like, what they fear who they talk to and who they love. It does not mean we should so spy upon our fellow man in a dystopia far worse then 1984

although this is more true for younger kids (it still holds somewhat true for 11 year olds), generally bad behaviour is caused by lack of attention/ the kid wanting attention. the thing is just that they don't separate as well between good and bad attention, thus they end up doing whichever gives them more attention. thus, through punishing bad behaviour you might be encouraging it, especially if you punish bad behaviour more than you reward good behaviour.

of course you still need to make the kid aware of it when (s)he does something wrong. but simply saying "don't do that" and explaining why is much better than yelling at her/him, and a LOT better than doing anything physical. grounding is also pretty unwise.

Because children have the same kind of comprehension as an adult?
Either way I don't mean this in any jocular way but those kids should have been shot.

I just watched the video twice to make sure, he grabed the kid by the back of the neck, and applied a pressure point from the looks of it, when did he grab the kid by the throat, am I missing something?

I don't think you actually see it, but while he's got him by the back of the neck it looks like he might have him by the throat with his other hand.

I seriously believe "don't do that" is absolutely pointless when teaching a kid morals. I'm not saying the driver did something good, quite frankly I don't really know what exactly it does to those kids (and I think neither do you). from my own perspective I would expect them to realize they have crossed the line.

and I thought he grabbed him by the neck as well, I didn't bring that up because I'm not sure and am not gonna watch the movie again. But if so, grabbing someone by the neck is so harmless I can't understand you'd call that violence.

WTF the kids were assaulting a bus driver, and they are told by their parents "not to do that again" WTF My friend pushed my teacher, and he went to Juvi for a year.

Just watched it again and that kid wasnt affected by even that right after the man did that he was all in his face telling him he was going to "knock his ass out" So people using the "Omg neck grab soo violent" please give me a break.

If Liquid`Drone's ideas are right and Nazgul is wrong, then Asian countries would've collapsed some time around 3000 B.C. and we would live in a society where American and bm couldn't possibly be used in the same sentence. Obviously neither of these happen, and Gorush still respects his parents heavily. I've had teachers tell me things like "don't do that" and I can't ever remember thinking "oh no I was wrong I will be respectful for the rest of my life". When the teachers say things like that, I just roll my eyes and think "yeah, whatever, I'll just ignore you and get you back someday".

Oh.

Neck is pretty damn different from throat +_+ I didn't even realize he grabbed him by the throat until someone said it -_-;;

Anyways, there's so more ways to tell someone they've done something wrong otehr than beating them with a stick--

that's how you teach them to be respectful.

if they don't learn when they're crossing the line it'll only get worse I would think

It's not like he beat him up he just grabbed him a bit


although this is more true for younger kids (it still holds somewhat true for 11 year olds), generally bad behaviour is caused by lack of attention/ the kid wanting attention. the thing is just that they don't separate as well between good and bad attention, thus they end up doing whichever gives them more attention. thus, through punishing bad behaviour you might be encouraging it, especially if you punish bad behaviour more than you reward good behaviour.

of course you still need to make the kid aware of it when (s)he does something wrong. but simply saying "don't do that" and explaining why is much better than yelling at her/him, and a LOT better than doing anything physical. grounding is also pretty unwise.



I think in alot of cases is not the attention that makes kids act out. I think that they're used to being controlled by dictator like parents at home, parents who maybe resort to physical violence sometimes. These kids are repessed by force at home, but whne thye come to school no such force exists. So they act out and rebel because they can get away with it. Whereas at home their dad would kick their ass.

Grab someones arm, ok. Grab someones throat, not ok.


To grab someones throat is something I learned to do by default, on the other hand I had a little rough time because of my temper back in early school days, once it was found out I could go into a rage sort of state someone found it very funny to bring that forth in me, hence since I learned the art called: Grab them by the throat and they turn from being predator eyed into sheepeyed.

All in all, if you want to realy scare someone, grab them by the throat, nothing seem to work on such a instictive level of fright as being grabbed around the throat ^^

My temper was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad until 6th grade -_-b Incidently around the time I started playing starcraft ^_^ And went from really bad to really good when I started playing BW haha

Hm, no one ever used that against me though because I'm pretty big + most people liked me.
I had absolutely SHIT teachers though, so I'm biased against teachers.

Hm.

I've been told swedish kids have a very, very bad reputation =/
Which I often tend to agree with.. Though where I live I've haven't experienced *that* much shit, well, at least people tend to not call teachers motherfuckers but it's not like anyone respects them..

And I've considered people 'retarded kids' since I was like 6 probably

He shoulda just kicked those kids off his bus, if parents complain about it, complain to the parents about not teaching their kids respect. That bus driver doesn't have to take shit from those kids. Think their so tough until the bus driver gets up and one kids starts screaming like a little girl.

This is basically the norm in North America.

In Britain the behaviour of adolescents has recently become a fairly major political issue.

There's a happy slapping wave supposedly going through Britain.

A major shopping centre has banned hooded tops and baseball caps because of intimidation of shoppers: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/kent/4534903.stm

Politically speaking it looks as though the Government is going to try to bring in reforms putting more responsibility for anti-social behaviour in adolescents on the parents.

You are all rediculously stupid!

First of all, I will say that I do NOT agree with how the kid in the back acted in the first place. It was stupid and disrespectful.

Now that that is out of the way...What did the first kid that the bus driver "ruffed" up do? He was sitting there watching the driver get up and it looked like he tried to move his feet out of the isle or something when he was basically SLAMMED backwards into his seat and pushed into the side of the bus. Apparently not moving out of the way fast enough for a 66 year old man on a rampage...

When all of you keep saying how it was only the older kid throwing punches, OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES!!! The only reason that kid acted was because the driver was storming threateningly towards someone easily 2 feet shorter, and probably 150 or more pounds less than him. From the way the driver stormed up there I was thinking that he was going to tear that younger kid apart!!
The older kid acted as anyone in his position should have. He protected all those around him who would have had NO CHANCE IN HELL against a man that size! And if you will pay attention, it's the BUS DRIVER WHO PUT HIS HANDS ON THE KID FIRST!!!! All the kid did was jump up and get the man's attention the only way he knew how. He cussed.

From there, instinct took over for the kid. After being thrown and pushed back further into the bus and temporarily being strangled by the man, as soon as he was free he launched a punch to try and defend himself. After several more seconds of man-handling the teenager, the man hears a page on the radio and hurries back to his seat.

The kid's behavior was rude and uncalled for, but they are just kids!!! ALL KIDS CUSS!!! Get used to it already!! By the time they are in 4th or 5th grade they have already learned the majority of words and phrases commonly used in cussing from their friends and PARENTS!! They grow out of it in time, through growing up and regular life experiences.

The reactions of the driver were UNFORGIVEABLE!!! He had no right to lay a hand on any of those kids after he had already called for reinforcements from local police. As an ADULT, he should know how to control himself. None of the children were threatening ANYONE, let alone other children or even the driver, so the law that allows "hands-on discipline" in case someone begins threatening someone else does NOT apply to this man!

All in all this man, and ALL of you who support what he did, you all make me sick. Discipline should be left in the hands of the parents. NOT in the hands of some RANDOM bus driver who can't control his temper worth shit!!

It was wrong the way the bus driver reacted no doubt about and the kids should have just done what he asked them to do in the first place rather than ignore/argue with him. The bus driver took it to far when he hit the kid and then choked him. I also heard this morning about a teacher somewhere (i cannot remember where) that choked a student till he passed out. I do believe the teacher was fired but this kinda stuff happens a lil more often than it should.

what's ironic? Rediculous and stupid may seem to mean the same thing separately, but when put together rediculous changes to something like "amazingly" or "incredibly".

But I'm glad that at least 1 or 2 people in this thread aren't all for child abuse.

/me takes out his obvious stick. Redicilous is a SPELLING ERROR, it's spelt ridiculous.

There's a clear line between discipline and child abuse.
Discipline - to "educate" or "correct" a child when he/she/maggot steps across the line.
Child abuse - using a child as a punching bag.

Yes the driver should've been more responsible. But those kids took advantage of his position as the "bus driver." If those kids would've walked up to a full grown adult and called them a "fucker." I doubt they'd be simply "beat up." I mean the bus driver was what? 66 years old? To cuss at someone of that age/generation, that just goes to show how "well behaved" the kids were.

Let's just let them be, next week we'll have kids killing the bus driver and it'll be a okay. I mean come on, it was in "instinctively self defence." Please.

Get someone AUTHORIZED to deal with them, have him tell them to get the fuck off the bus and WALK in the future.

You say he's 66 as if that would make what he did right. I say he's 66 meaning he should be mature enough to just not give a fuck and deal with it in a RESPONSIBLE way.

He's 66. Not 16.

Nothing sickens me more than american kids that think they know everything. Kids are stupid and they need some discipline in their life. I don't think the bus driver did anything wrong, do you think this kid will fuck with anymore bus drivers?

I think its also sad that this way of thinking is getting very popular in Japan these days. My parents were very strict like most Japanese people are with their kids and I never hated them when they beat me. I love my parents very much and I am thankful that they taught me right from wrong. These days Japanese parents are so overprotecting of their kids that its almost like american parents. Its sick and parents need to parent their children, not be their friends and lie for them to get them out of trouble with schools or the law

and yes I know this is not just american kids. Actually the most horrible kids I've met were some Swedish boys (I guess about 10-12 yrs old) that were dressed like Harry Potter characters. They were staying in the same hotel as me and they were basically tearing everything up and their parents did nothing. I felt like choking them

if kids are our future, they need to learn to follow their parent's good example. Unfortunately I don't think there are many good examples left for children to follow these days

Yeah, this is sad. The Americans parents try to be nice to their children with their "child abuse" laws and they turn out disrespectful people who wouldn't last a day in another country like Korea and spend lots of time at school telling their friends stuff like "oh my parents are so (insert expletive here) because...". In Asian countries(probably excluding Japan, if SiS is right...) they actually PARENT their children and what do you get? Well-disciplined kids with good manners(we'll just assume oov was the exception to this) who are very respectful. And read all the progamer interviews where the Korean progamer mentions his parents, you'll notice that they all love and respect their parents just as much as, if not more than, the westerners whose parents let them do whatever they want.

compared with Korea and china, Japan might seem "loose" with parenting but Japanese kids are still basically harmless and sweet and I've never heard them be mean to their elders and teachers or even bus drivers

its just sad that Japanese parents are becoming so protective of them that they are not willing to discipline them these days, atleast not like they used to do like my parents did
