It can also be very rewarding at times. Some of those kids needs someone who cares about them and I really do. It can also be the most frustrating with kids who know no discipline.
That is perfect Janet! My kids have the best bus driver this year. You can tell she really cares about the kids. I can imagine how bad it must be though with those unruly kids on the bus. Standing and screaming the whole ride! UGH!
