Bullied grandmother on school bus pitiful sign of times

Here is my response to recent bullied school bus monitor in New York.


Happens all the time - on the bus, in the classroom, in the hallways - kids can be mean, but they "learn" how to BULLY people who are different instead of tolerance. It used to be about race and sex discrimination. Now it is boiling down to jeering those who are old and overweight. Somehow, picking on defenseless others is increasing their self-esteem.


We are losing the next generation. Some kids don't respect bus monitors, substitutes, classroom teachers, campus security, the administration OR parents/grandparents OR themselves. What do you expect when they see our soldiers peeing on dead bodies?


They do respect video game characters, vampire movie stars, and some drug dealers, though.
