    Smile School Bus Driver Saved By Teens -

    I thought I would share this local story from my news. I have seen more than one post here that paints the younger generation in a negative light and I thought this was a good example of the positive that can also be found in our youth.

    Thank you for sharing. We are watching Fox News at work and we just saw that. So glad that they were able to get it stopped.

    As a school bus driver I hope that if I were in the same situation my kids would do the same for me!

    That is wonderful!
    I do realise that not all of today's youth are deserving of being seen negativly, just as not all adults should be looked at as responsible etc.
