[VIDEO] Bus Monitor, Karen Huff Klein, Mercilessly Bullied By Middle-Schoolers
As I was watching this video I grew absolutely disgusted with humanity, especially kids at this age. I remember being in middle school/high school and constantly having people talk about myself and/or others without having any real clue as to who they were, inside, not out. These ignorant, cocky, insecure middle-schoolers thought it would be funny to make fun of a woman just because of how she looked and her unwillingness to give into their taunts, and retaliate. When you see a video like this, it makes you better understand why it is that bullying is such a huge issue for kids these days.
Klein is a 68-year-old woman that has been through a lot in her life, and although the taunting offended her, she has received support from many people around the world who have contributed nearly $300,000 to her after seeing this video that has gone viral. Unfortunately, kids who are bullied have to deal with children teasing them like this on a daily basis and have no outlet. Why is it that we lack compassion at a young age and don’t respect our elders? I know times have changed, and in a lot of ways, for the better; Sadly, the attitudes of most pre-teens/teens has been one of the most disappointing outcomes of our growth as a society.

Karen Huff Klein is a hard-working individual that has been employed by the same school district for over 23 years. Annually, she makes around $15,000 which doesn’t even compare with the amount of donations she’s received from donors across the country. The fund was initiated because someone believed this woman needed a vacation, especially after seeing what hell she’s been put through. At one point in the video, a child says “You’re so ugly, your kids should kill themselves.’ One of Mrs. Klein’s sons had killed himself 10 years earlier. It’s shit like this that these kids don’t know and are unaware of how what they says may affect her. Instead of teaching these kids mathematics and history that isn’t really all that true, we might want to give them basic lessons in human interaction, compassion, understanding and being kind.
At the 6 and a half minute mark, a student said: ‘If I stabbed you in the stomach, my knife would f***** go through like butter, because it’s all f***** lard.’
Klein is very appreciative for what the random donors have done for her, but what she’d really like is an apology from the four students that made her cry and humiliated her.
