Bus driver holds nervous boy's hand on first day of school

Taking the bus to school for the first time can be a scary experience for anyone. When you're 4 years old, it may be extra tough.

But when the right people reach out to lend a hand -- in this case quite literally -- it can make the moment so much more bearable. The photo was posted to the Augusta Police Department Facebook page. The caption read, in part,"The compassion we see every day in our teachers, bus drivers, custodians, administration, food service staff, and paraprofessionals is truly admirable."Lane is surprised by all the positive reaction the post has received.

"I've had parents message me on Facebook, thanking me for my small act and sharing that they hope the bus driver their child gets would do the same," she said."It just really makes me feel good that's I've impacted this many people.""He's doing amazing," Lane told"GMA.""He gets on every day with a big smile on his face."

Why not wait until he's 5 -- what's the rush to leave Mommy's arms What has this society come to?!

Ok he’s nervous but so are many many others. Fear is a part of a 4 years old life.

KScott6abc awww poor little guy

Yesterday I’d applaud you thus story. Today I abhor you Network

i remember when my bus driver used to kiss me on the lips everyday before school, some people just really care

My four year old road the bus and we followed it and met her at the school. It was harder for me than her. This little guy will be fine. 😊.

This is a result of over-protective helicopter parenting.

Yea, ask Forrest

At four?! That's way too young to be going to school!

The parents should have taken the kid to school.

Both hands on the wheel please!

Nice move 👍🏻

Mums/Dads should accompany them on the first day

Driver arrested after nearly hitting girl getting off school bus, police sayPolice in Texas say they arrested a man who was seen speeding past a school bus last month, nearly running over a young girl. 👍 How about u put ur phone down and walk ur child across the street? Or that too much to ask ? School buses have stop signs in the front and back, they are very clearly displayed. Was he on the phone? Put him in jail for a few years and take his license away. He could have killed that child. Irresponsible drivers have no business being on the road, endangering everyone.
