Hitting them/physical abuse isnt the right way of going about teaching them to shut up and sit down, children learn best by example, and thus capital punishment teaches children they can get what they want not through reason and common sense but by hitting somebody when things dont go their own way. I dont condone any kinda violence unless its self defence, otherwise its the ignorance and persons inability to control their emotions on display. The driver should have known better and acted a little more mature, and the kids shouldnt have been such ****heads they're both to blame, but personally i feel that the driver shouldnt have lashed out, as it is one of the possibilities in that line of work that he accepted when he took the job and he dealt with it in completely the wrong way. If that happened in my town the driver would have ended up in hospital, the bus would go on a lengthy joy ride and found the next day burned in a park.
