What are your thoughts on this situation? What do you think about the bus driver risking and losing his life? Why do you think that the man has kidnapped this little boy? How do you think the little boy is coping?
The situation is very sad. The kid seems to have been a random target, especially since it isn't who he wanted to take. The bus driver did a remarkable thing, sacraficing his life for two children. I think that the man kidnapped the boy because a mixture of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) and because of possibly just being lonely, needing someone, in this case, a child that can help him. As I finish this, I know that the standoff ended in a good way. During the standoff, I think that the boy was worried, but tried to make the most of it, especially with the items he recieved while down there. Anyways, I hope that this experience doesn't cause too much damage to the child in the future.

Yeah, it'd be interesting to look back on this case in a few years and see what's become of "Ethan".
