New-School Gossip

One of my favorite pasttimes the last couple of weeks has been discovering new parents, new issues and getting to learn new things from them.


Eavesdropping makes the time go by and oh so much fun. I got an earful this weekend about children who are supposedly afraid to ride the bus because of one little 6-year-old monster who is alleged to be threatening to kill people; the bus driver refused to take him home and instead drove him back to the school and the kid had to be accompanied by the school psychologist. Don't know the facts; but what a story. In the process of listening, it became clear that some parents thought they wouldn't be heard if they complained about this situation.

I hope it's not true, either the part about the other kids being scared or that there's a child with that many problems already.
