That video was hard to watch.

I hope the criminal charges are followed up on the district forced to pay damages and training. I hope when the media goes on to the next story everybody is not let off easy and things do not go back to normal.

It was very hard for me to watch that video. The bus driver also looks like my mum, so I think I'm going to have nightmares tonight.

I really hope you don't but it did stick in my mind too. Strangely what I hated most was at the very end after all that abuse the poor kid is still saying "please". She is the same age as my daughter. :(
