Our car is at the mechanics so I've been sending DD11 to school by taxi in the mornings. I picked her up this afternoon and she told me when the driver arrived at school he said to her "you're hot, do you want to go out with me'", she said "no" and got out real fast. I have the Reg and the driver's ID number, I'm going to ring the police I just needed to tell someone before I do. I'm so angry with this driver for upsetting DD in this way, how dare he say this to her and I'm feeling so guilty for sending her on her own. We get the car back tomorrow but I told her she'll never go in a taxi alone again.
I've rang the police, he was so nice, took down details and is going to write up a report and send it to (can't remember where). It is going to be followed up, he also suggested to make a complaint with the taxi company, havn't done that yet. DD was doing ok up until I told her I was going to make a complaint, shouldn't have said anything to her. She started saying maybe she made a mistake, maybe it was a student walking past, maybe she heard him wrong, she's worried or scared. I've reassured her she's done nothing wrong, he is the adult, I also praised her for saying no straight away and getting out.
Poor kid totally not her fault, even if there was the slighter chance he was saying it about someone outside the car, it's still totally inappropriate!
Hope he gets what he deserves. Scumbag.
She's done nothing and tell her from all us how proud we are of her for telling you and saying no and getting out. I'm really angry poor girl. Much love to you all xx
Rang the taxi company and they said I need to make the complaint via e-mail. This has affected DD more than I thought, last night she was so very quiet, just not herself. She asked how she would be getting to school and I told her we can get a taxi but I will come too, she didn't want a bar of it, she was begging me for us to walk, which we did.
