[quote=Anonymous]When I went to school -- before e-mail and mobile phones -- communications with the teacher were more limited. There was no expectation that a teacher should be responsible for responding to any and all parent inquiries, big and small, in a quality manner...within 24 hours or less of receipt. That would have been considered crazy, weird. And yet, there is a group of parents who seem to believe this is a reasonable expectation now, merely because technology makes this level of hyper communication possible. Give your teacher a break. Especially this early in the school year. First grade is what, about 24 students? That's a lot of time wasted providing reassurance to parents that could have been spent on actual work for your children. [/quote]
