Randolph County mom says her son with special needs was left at the bus stop

Описание: A mother in Randolph County says her 9-year-old son with special needs was left with a stranger after getting off the bus from school.

Amanda McNamee's son Brenden was diagnosed with autism at a young age and is non-verbal. His mother says he also is ADHD, has high blood pressure, Obsessive-Compulsive tendencies, elopement, six brain tumors, oppositional defiant disorder, and much more. "I don't know if anyone understands just how serious this was," McNamee explains, recalling the incident.

Brenden goes to Southmont Elementary in Asheboro and his mother said he loves riding the bus and loves the school system. McNamee said her son was left at the bus stop with a stranger though, that he nor she had ever met. District policy says that for K-3 grade students and exceptional children, an adult must be present when the child is dropped off. The school system said in situations where the parent or guardian is not present at the bus stop, the student is taken back to school, the bus driver radios the bus garage, and the school is contacted.

McNamee says she would've been fine if her son was taken back to school but that's not what happened in this case.
