Families want bus stop moved away from strip club, liquor store
By Amy Napier Viteri

ATLANTA -

Family members concerned about a school bus stop next to a liquor store and strip club want Atlanta Public Schools to move the location.

The bus for Crawford Long Middle School students drops them on Connell Avenue at Metropolitan Parkway next door to a package store.

"And then you've got a strip club over there? These kids don't need to be exposed to that. They already know enough," complained Felicia Travis.

Travis' 11-year-old niece, Tianna Hall, rides the bus.

Tianna told Channel 2's Amy Napier Viteri at least one of her classmates has already shown interest in the nearby businesses.

"She said she wanted to be a stripper, same thing they're doing over there. She said she wanted to get money," Travis said.

For Travis, safety is also a concern. She pointed to students walking home along Metropolitan Parkway.

    Those who are easily shocked should be shocked more often.

    Children are exposed to this and more just by watching TV or participating on a "social" network....... it is nothing new to them.

    Just some pretentious prigs tring to get out of teaching their children right from wrong. [;)]

    Heck over here they just build them next to the schools!
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    What, are the hawkers hustlin' the kids? Just tell 'em they can't go inside.

    Nothin' in there they don't already see on prime-time TV.

    Swear to God- was driving in NC, there was a building with a sign that said Nude Massage one one side and DayCare on the other. Maybe a fringe benefit for their employees........
