[QUOTE="slsh, post: 488515, member: 8"] I absolutely agree that your son does *not* deserve a consequence. I think a great question for staff involved would be how they think *they* would react after getting popped in the head when their eyes were closed. There are certain reactions that are normal - doesn't sound like your son intentionally did it. It was a reflex. I also think staff on bus needs to be tutored on basic safety issues. It's not hard for teachers and chaperones to tell if a kid is on his knees in his seat, facing the wrong way. Had they been monitoring the kids, this wouldn't have happened, period. I've been on plenty of field trips on buses - we watched the kids like hawks. If they're going to punish your son for a reflex, the other 2 boys should also be punished, with the kid who instigated the whole thing receiving a more severe punishment. However, I really don't think any of the boys should be punished since the adults on the bus weren't doing their jobs in the first place. in my humble opinion. [/QUOTE]
