That woman sounds like a trashy drama queen

Don't worry Janet, the principal knows you and your work far better than that stupid woman. They know what some parents can be like, they deal with these sort of situations daily.
You did the right thing
Don't let woman like her get to you, she is not worth it!
I'ts obvious she has some serious personal issues to deal with!

I'm sorry this is happening. I'm glad the assist princ knows you and trusts your word. People can be so doggone difficult sometimes but those who make a habit of it end up with little if any credibility, so I really don't think you need to worry about your job. I'm sorry someone you considered a friend turned out to be such a PITA.
Hang in there... this too shall pass.

Thanks everyone I really appreciate your support, more than you know.

She did send me the email and the things she said were lies and half truths concerning her son. I replied to the email in red so that the Assist. Princ. could know the truth. The AP said that the mother called her around 2 this afternoon and was very irate, but said by the end of the phone call she had her calmed down. The mother wants her sons off my bus, and to tell you the truth, so do I. So it looks like this is going to happen. I will know for sure tomorrow, I think.

I wish I could show you all the email with my responses, but it is just way too long. I wish I had a blog or whatever they are called so you all could read it.

The AP did say, she supported me and that the Transportation Director had nothing but good things to say about me and the way I handle the students on my bus. So, it does look that my job, at this time, is not in jeopardy. The AP did say that the mother didn't mention informing the Superintendant and even if she did, the AP knows he would support me too. That made me feel so much better.

I really love my job, the hours, the students and it would be a great hardship if I was to lose it. So as of this moment, everything is calm... I will tell you my eyes ache so bad right now from crying so much today and my nerves are just shot. I will probably head to bed early tonight, but for now, I want to be where my friends are. I love you gals!!!!

I am so glad everything turned out ok for you. I knew your superiors were not going to believe that trashy woman. In the end, something good came out of it, you won't have to deal with those boys anymore. Have yourself a nice relaxing bath and try to get some rest.

BTW, I was looking forward to a road trip to Indiana. I guess I'll have to call the protest off...

Janet,

What a wonderful ending to an otherwise EXTREMELY stressful day for you! See, we all told you it would work out in the end You are just too kind of a person, doing what you know in your heart to be the right thing for the protection of those put into your care on that bus. The schools across our lands need to have more caring, concerned drivers such as you! Parents put their kids on the bus each day and are literally putting the lives and welfare of their children into the bus driver's hands - you do the bus driving community proud Your track record with the school system has spoke for itself - you did not need to defent yourself in this situation as you have already done that throughout your career! So try to put this behind you as best you can and don't let it bother you anymore than it already has.

As for that road trip - I, too, was looking forward to heading north and standing in front of you to kick some butt! We've only known each other a very short time but in that time, I've come to know a little of what's in your heart and the type of person you are - and proudly call you friend! And NO ONE messes with my friends!! So hang in there, your friends here at 4WT have definitely got your back!
