No there is only one side to this story. There's camera footage of this incident. The camera never lies. I'll admit that school bus drivers seem to be curmudgeonly but who can blame them? Having to deal with annoying kids all day will wear on a person. Regular bus drivers seem pretty harmless to me. Full Comment>>

Seeking help from a councilor has been both the hardest and best thing I've ever done for myself. As I progress in my therapy I can see the difference in my attitude toward others, thus potentially making me a better member of a "harmonious" society. Full Comment>>

I've experienced some minor issues holding two passports. I'm a US/Canadian dual citizen.

Finding actual love may be an uphill battle but at least I haven't given up the fight. If you do one thing in life, love somebody. Try starting with yourself. You can keep your cynicism(or is it sino-cism?). I'll keep my naivety, thank you. Full Comment>>

I know the concept of "love" is very different in China, but there was no mention of it in the article or in the comments here. Does it even exist in China? What's the point of a relationship or a family without it? Please feel free to laugh (or cry) at my naivety. Full Comment>>
