Tattle tailing is a time honored tradition of little kids, sometimes with adults as well. When a child on my bus raises their hand it takes my eyes off the road and the brain is not as focused either on the driving. In the end most of the raised hands amount to… nothing.
I have rules on the bus just for tattle tails.
The person you are telling on must be hurting you or another student.
You must kindly ask the person to stop. “please stop you are hurt me.”
If the child does not stop I want to know about it.
After it is dealt with
Forgive the student hurting you even if they do not apologize; holding a grudge on some one gives that person power over you.
The offending person needs to apologize.
Choose to be friends; yes friendship is a choice, besides being enemies is no fun.
Always
Worry about your own behavior first.
Never try to get some one back.
After I gave these rules I began to wonder, do I follow them?
