[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm sorry that some people are giving you a hard time about this. You are absolutely right that society has devolved in this way. It's truly outrageous that the coach didn't stay until all kids were picked up. That we are in a situation where the only solution is to give young children phones that parents then have to manage. And that our technological "progress" has people suggesting that it is unreasonable to drop children off at a lesson and ~gasp!~ leave the parking lot expecting that the coach is doing their job supervising the children in their charge.

It seems we aren't going back to payphones, at least not anytime soon. What I suggest is getting a cheap flip phone or something similar and keeping it charged in the car. Then you can hand it to your kid as needed, and keeping it in the car otherwise means you don't have to worry about it being dead or left on the charger at home when you need it.[/quote]

I wholeheartedly disagree with you. We haven't develved into this. If anything, the opposite is true. This is a specific issue with the coach and this club. Not a societal failing.
