[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here again.. thank you all so much.  Yesterday I kept up until about page 2, and then got distracted all evening with work and life.  Hugs to the annoyed PP, love to the PP whose father died, and so much thanks to the PP with the advice to be an ear for these kids.  They really are just silly and innocent and chatty.  Maybe they are making fun of me!  Lol.  I’m sure I’ll miss it when they all go away to college.  I’m not annoyed by their texts; it’s all just a new way of communicating for this 👵🏻 and I want to be sure I’m not doing anything wrong.  Thanks again for all the perspective![/quote]

You're overthinking this OP. If the parents trust you to DRIVE their kids you are not doing anything wrong by exchanging texts.  For goodness sake you could drive off with all the kids if you wanted. I agree with the village PP, our society has lost the ability to have social cohesion and connection with others outside of the family unit. I get that the texts are annoying, but I don't feel like it's a big deal. It is good for young people to have a constellation of adults that care.

If I trusted you to drive my kid in a carpool, I'd be fine with my kid communicating with you directly. Plus there must be something about you that the kids feel comfortable "chatting" with you. So take it as a compliment. I'd inform the parents if the texts take a wrong turn somehow.[/quote]
