and I don't feel like that.
- He's not safe on that bus.
- I don't, either.
It's hard. It is hard.
And you know what?
This was my day on Thursday.
This is my granddaughter
and her new baby brother.
I'd be sitting there,
crying, just like you
if anything happened
to those two kids.
See my new baby?
We don't want anything
Any of them.
This is totally wrong, totally wrong
that this situation would happen.
Absolutely. But...
It just seems to me,
if it's a few kids, then...
you take away the few kids.
You'll just have to trust me
that we'll take care
of that other child.
And I really am glad you came in.
Come on.
Goodbye, sweetie.
- Thanks again.
- Thank you.
- I'll talk to you later, OK?
- All right.
but we will take care of it.
Wait for your mom.
What did she say
when we were leaving,
"We'll take care of it"? I'm pretty sure
that's what she said in the fall.
Yeah.
She politicianed us.
She'd not gonna do anything.
If something is not done
and the kids don't hear about it,
it will say, "This is fine."
What I'm doing is investigating
what happened to Alex the other day.
- Do you...
- Alex the red...
the red-haired one
or the blond-haired one?
Can you tell me
'Cause I don't know,
really, much about it.
I've seen people doing stuff to him,
but I don't know nothing about,
like, what's really been going on.
Have you ever seen
anything happen to him on the bus
that would be considered hurtful?
Not that I know of.
Teddy and other people, like,
call him "fish face" on the bus.
It's jokes and stuff,
- So, yeah.
- OK.
Hi, Jerry, come on in.
I understand that you
haven't been getting along
very well with Alex Hopkins.
Um, sometimes we have, like,
this kid from the high school
that picks on me and him.
He's kinda chubby.
Do you think that
the bus is very safe, Thomas?
No.
And have you ever hit him?
Yes, I have because
he's really made me mad.
You will not be teasing anybody,
or using bad words.
OK.
You tell me "OK,"
and I'll believe it when I see it.
You will be talking
to Officer Mattus,
and you probably won't be riding
that bus for the rest of the year
if you think that it's OK
for you to hit people.
"Go ahead, hit him,
attack him, do it."
And that's going
in your discipline file.
- OK.
- All right?
I'll be watching you.
What's one thing that you need
to start doing that you haven't done?
- Tell someone.
- Yes.
Do you trust us that we'll
do something when you tell us
that someone's bothering you?
Well, in sixth grade, you...
did nothing about,
Teddy sitting on my head.
- On the bus?
- Yeah, there's, like, a little knob.
Then, once you unlock that knob,
you can, like, lift up the seats.
And he lifted up the seat,
put my head in it, sat on my head.
How do you know
I didn't do anything?
I don't know, 'cause...
Alex, did he sit on
your head after you told me?
- He...
- I did talk to him.
And he didn't do that again, did he?
Come on, pop the trunk.
I'm home! Whoo!
I'm at home!
It looks so different.
Ooh!
Ooh-whee.
Mom, the house looks so pretty.
It looks so pretty.
- What?
- It's just like my first time here.
Why do you keep
turning the lights off?
My bad.
"Sometimes sweetness and love
is all you need.
Dear Mother, I want to thank you
for all you have given me:
love, trust, care, help, fun, life.
Happy Mother's Day.
This coupon is good
for one chore.
This coupon is good
for one breakfast in bed.
This coupon is good
for three days of fun."
Kinda sucks that it's Mother's Day.
I don't feel like
a very good mother today.
Come here. Come here.
Alex, he just can't fit in.
He tries.
He just comes across
so weird to people, you know?
What really
ticks me off is, like,
if they got to know him,
he'd probably be the most
devoted friend they ever had.
I'm sure we haven't made
things easier here?
If he came home and told us
this stuff, on a regular basis,
when it happened,
then we would've known.
I imagine
when they're beating
the crap out of him
is having to come
home and tell you.
He wants to be you.
Never sees you cry.
Well, the next time he's around,
and you start crying.
Um, Mom? Can I ride
my roller skates?
- If you change your pants.
- OK.
If you fall, I don't
want you to rip your slacks.
May I have your attention,
please, for afternoon announcements.
This is the last day
of school for everyone.
And we want to wish you all
a safe, happy, fun summer,
and we can't wait
to see you in the fall.
Why do you always have
your hair like that? Like...
Like, my bangs are weird.
OK.
Hold on, let me get
your shirt still.
- Thank you.
- Hey, can I sign your shirt?
Sure.
Do we get our things today?
What is that?
- I don't know.
- Dumb, probably.
I don't believe in luck,
but I believe in hope.
There's the twins right there.
Rebecca...
I can't tell them apart!
There's Fatima, right there.
I asked her if I could
have a dollar at lunch
'cause I wanted to buy a switch,
but she said, "Maybe."
She has a cute nose.
Girls are like candy.
Sometimes you want,
like, a Hershey's bar,
sometimes you want
a Snickers bar.
You can't really tell
which one you want.
Sometimes you want,
like, a popsicle.
It's a complicated feeling.
One more week.
When you look back and you wonder
where the year has gone...
and what it would be like
if Tyler was here.
How would he be?
How much would he have changed?
You just don't know.
Yeah, you know, I went in thinking
it was gonna be a new year,
and people were used to me.
And I went into class, and the class was
already full and I sat down,
moved seats.
I was the only one
sitting in a little circle.
That was enough.
Maybe there's another place
I can go try to make a difference.
We've decided, as of this week,
that we've pulled her
out of school here.
I never knew what the saying,
"You don't know what
a person's been through
until you walk a mile
in their shoes."
the depth of that meaning
until I had a gay child.
It has made me completely reevaluate
who and what I am as a human being...
to see the ugliness
that has come out.
It took me a while to realize
that you can't change it all at once.
It's gonna take multiple people,
at separate stages
of people's lives,
talking and making a difference.
It's not just gonna take me.
It's a little one-room schoolhouse
that my grandmother
taught at a long time ago.
And my family's been
out in this area for over 100 years.
Our farm's
a Centennial Oklahoma Farm.
It's Progress.
This is home.
Ty's name is in the foundation
