Lifes Like That

I am really getting tired of the happenings that have been going on on the school bus these days.  Both of my younger children travel on the same bus in the mornings and as my daughter is two years older than my son and quite a bit bigger, she has a tendency to be a mother hen and watch over him.  This is a great thing and it makes me proud that I have raised my daughter to be like this.  Yesterday she came home from school and informed me that three older boys (grades 4 and 5) had been picking on her little brother on the bus.  He is only in grade 1 and he is very tiny for his age.  So, she stepped in to try to help her brother out and they started picking on her.  When they informed the bus driver of what was happening she said he didn’t respond.  So, here I am again talking to the teachers, bus driver and school board to try to get this straightened out.  They are suppose to have a zero tolerance policy for bullying and I am going to make sure they enforce it.  But, I’m really getting tired of having to take these drastic measures.
