Chime in now!

Our morning talker for Thursday comes to us from Eagle Mountain, Utah, where there were some scary moments for an elementary school girl in as she was kicked off of a school bus in the middle of an unfamiliar neighborhood because she forgot to get a note from her mother.

The driver tried to call her mom, Amber Hobdy.

When her phone went to voicemail, the driver forced the little girl, Kya, to get off the bus, in a strange neighborhood a mile from her school and a mile and a half from her home.

The district apologized and promised action.

Since the incident, the driver has been placed on leave but we are asking our facebook fans this morning if this is enough action to be taken? Has this ever happened to your son or daughter? Chime in now!
