Seth's Law went into effect July 1st, requiring all California schools to have strict anti-bullying policies in effect.

These proactive and precocious Orange County kids are here to make sure it gets enforced- and they're not alone. Ellen DeGeneres' mom Betty is lending her support as well!

So cool!!!

Karen Klein and her daughter got a sightseeing tour Thursday on an amphibious duck boat that also involved some local children.

The bullied former bus monitor arrived in a stretch limo where she was presented with a bouquet of flowers and was welcomed by a youth cheerleading squad who escorted her on a red carpet to receive an honorary Boston school bus monitor certificate.

Here's what Klein said:

"I've never had this much attention in my whole life."

You totally deserve it, lady!

We love the irony of her life being changed in such a positive way after she was bullied.

We wish that could happen to all the bullied people in the world!

Not only was Karen Klein bullied by those awful kids on the bus, she was also bullied by some school administrators who didn't think she was doing her job correctly.

That's ridiculous.

Here's what the bullied bus monitor said:

"Well, the things that they've said about me. 'Well she didn't do her job.' It doesn't matter that all of this has come up and it's helping people."

It are these comments, NOT the sudden huge sums of money she's received from sympathetic people all around the world, why she is absolutely not going back to work for the Greece School District as a bus monitor.

Hey, we don't blame her in the slightest!

Why work as a bus monitor when you can own like thirty buses??

Of course Klein isn't going to waste her money as she has said she'll spend it mainly on the future of her grandchildren, and donate it to worthwhile causes.

Such a sweet lady.

Karen Klein, the bus monitor who was cruelly bullied by middle school students, definitely knows the meaning of no pain no gain.

So it was emotional for her to meet the man who helped erase her pain with some awesome gains!

The bullied bus monitor met Max Sidorov on Tuesday night to thank him for setting up an online donation website that has raised $664,660 so far from people around the world which will now allow her to retire and be set up for life for good.

Ch-ch-check out the video (above) to see their emotional first meeting and see what true love really is!

Aw.

Wow, not even a bully deserves this.

The police apparently received a call yesterday that claimed to be holding a family hostage at gunpoint.

The caller gave the fuzz an address that turned out to be where one of Karen Klein's bullies lived, so the cops brought out the big guns and rushed over to the address.

Shizz was serious, too.

They set up a perimeter as they tried to contact the family inside, but could not reach them since the family had turned off their phones because of all the harassing phone calls they've received since their son bullied Karen Klein on a school bus.

Luckily the cops were finally able to speak with some family members, and realized the whole thing was a hoax.

Why would someone do this?

It is detrimental to the cops more than anyone. Someone could've actually needed the police while they were out on this wild goose chase.

Apparently, the police say threats targeting the bullies have been coming in left and right. They're threatening their brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, each and all loved ones.

Even students who weren't on the bus are getting threats! No arrests have been made.

We just wish these people who are bullying the bullies would remember than an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.

However, there is some very good news.

Donations for Karen Klein have passed 500,000! Amazing.

Three students whose viral video show them bullying/heckling/abusing school bus monitor Karen Klein have issued apologies to the 68-year-old grandmother.

Klein's reaction to the apologies will be seen on Anderson Cooper later tonight.

Here's what Josh the bully said:

"I am so sorry for the way I treated you. When I saw the video I was disgusted and could not believe I did that. I am sorry for being so mean and I will never treat anyone this way again."

Here's what Wesley the bully said:

"I feel really bad about what I did. I wish I had never done those things. If that had happened to someone in my family, like my mother or grandmother, I would be really mad at the people who did that to them."

Here's what Wesley the bully's mother said:

"I cannot even tell you how badly I feel. I am deeply sorry for what my son did. … I am embarrassed, angry and sad about the awful way he treated you."

There has been a tremendous outpouring of support for Klein. A fundraiser, which originally was created to help raise $5,000 for Klein's 'dream vacation, has already surpassed $440,000. The video of Klein being bullied has been seen by over 3.7 million people.

Klein has said the amount of support she's received from people all across the world has given her "chills."

We're happy the bullies apologized, but we personally wouldn't blame Klein if she rejects their sorries.

What do U think?

As we previously mentioned, Karen Huff Klein, a bus monitor in Greece, New York, was verbally assaulted by school kids on a bus ride.

After the video of her abuse went viral, so many people came out to show their support.

Most recently, anti-bullying champion Ellen DeGeneres tweeted:

"It breaks my heart. I'm so moved by the donations. Bullying doesn't end when you grow up. It ends when we stop bullying."

We're still shocked that children could do this to another human being.

There is a light at the end of this tunnel though.

Donations to send Karen on a vacation have reached impossible levels.

The original goal of $5,000 has been surpassed and is currently over $340,000 as of early Thursday evening. (By the time anyone reads this, we're sure it'll be closer to $500,000.)

It warms our heart to know that so many people donated so much money so this woman could get a much deserved vacation.

For that amount, she could take a week long trip to the secret moon colony! LOLz!

We're so glad something so incredible is happening to this woman!

If you'd like be one of the people to help send her to the moon on a ritzy vacation, go donate HERE!

Let's get her to a MILLION DOLLAR$!

We love a happy ending!
