Mom furious bus dumped 1st grader on NYC street

Mom furious bus dumped 1st grader on NYC street

Tuesday, September 23, 2008

A New York City first-grader was forced to walk the streets alone after he was dumped from a school bus after it had reached the end of the line, reports Fox News. Jaeden was returned to his mother after the boy approached a woman on the street and told her he was lost. His mother Aileen Bonilla says the school apologized but that "sorry" wouldn't have replaced her son if he had gotten killed.

Five-year-old children are not supposed to be let off school buses unless an adult is waiting, according to Department of Education rules. If an adult is not there, the driver is required to bring the child back to school, the Daily News reported.

And the bus driver, who should be fired, will be given a slap on the wrist because personal responsibility is dead in liberal America.

I can’t believe the nerve of the driver. When my daughter rode the bus, there was one day I didn’t make it and got a phone call, and then she was taken back to school, until I could pick her up.
