Am I overreacting w/the substitude bus driver.

[gabby06]

Well my sons bus driver is a female. The last 2 times she has been absent  the kids have had the same male substitude.About a month ago my son gets off the bus yelling "Mom the bus driver wants to know if your married? I told him your not but you and dad are going to get married" I thought it was funny and just left it alone.So when df gets home my son who is 5yrs old and tells everyone everything goes and tells my df what the substitude asked him. My df isnt a jealous guy but starts asking me how am I dressed when i wait for my son at the bus stop and silly thigs.Well for the next week my df waits in the am so he could be the one to walk my son to the bus.Now today my son gets off the bus and is yelling at me to go to the door of the bus.He yells" mom come here,he wants to know how old you are"? It made me feel uncomfortable and I also know my son will go tell my df.It wont be a big deal but is just creeped me out that this same substitude is asking my 5yr old son about me.I told my son next time he ask him things about me to ignore him and I told him that no man should be trying to talk to mommy because im with his dad, i really dont know how to explain this to my son.I was thinking about calling the transportaton department and tell them the substitude is being innaprpriate.Am I overreacting?

i would just confront him. tell him you're flattered but happily involved and his questions are creeping your kid out. be friendly but direct. no use jeopardizing his job, id worry about his revenge. and i wouldn't want my 5 year old to be the middle man.

I don't think so that is creepy!

I have called department of trans. 4 less serious things that that.... I would at least talk to the substitute about how you feel then if it continues report him immediately

I was thinking about talking to him but he really creeps me out, he will literally wait until my son and I get inside our house before he takes off, so yes he litterally has a view of my rear endit makes it harder for me to want to confront hm  or be direct w/him.

no way i would do the same thing!  But with my personality I would take it a bit further, and i would have gone to the bus and told him myself that he has no business asking my child about me, and that he needs to stop or i will have his job!

That is very unprofessional, that man hold a professional license and should act accordingly. I'd report him.

 I would have ur DH talk to him. that is very creepy

I would find a moment that you can talk to the bus driver first. Tell him that you're flattered, but you find his behavior inappropraite, and if it continues, you will call the transportation department.

Thanks Guys.I am going to have a talk w/him this afternoon. This morning my df walked my son and got very upset when he saw it was a male bus driver today. He didnt tell him anythng because he didnt want to end up fighting the guy in front of kids (Trust me, if my df opens his mouth I know it will get ugly). He kept his cool. What really bothers me is that he has now confused my son. My son thinks its okay for men to go ahead and talk to married women or women w/so.

No, you're not overreacting. The bus driver is being extremely inappropriate. If I were you I'd call the bus company and report him.
