Same story. Didn't last a year.

Something really needs to be done about it. It doesn't pay particularly well, there are no benefits, these people are mostly doing it, as you said, to 'give back' and they get treated like absolute ass.

This is one of those things where it comes down to parental responsibility.

Teach your kids how to treat people with respect or start giving Bus Drivers tasers or something.

"Hey! You tazed my kid!"

- "He was being a bratty little bitch."

"Fair enough. Can I borrow that?"
Put the parents on the bus. Make it a rotation so that you have two parents on the bus at all times and each parent has to do a week or something.

That way you have two adults who are not driving and can deal with the kids and they can report bad behavior to the other parents.
