[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have teens so I'm going to ask the dumb question but how often do older kids really need to reach their parents? Let's say practice gets out early, it seems like an 11-12 year old could wait at the field until the normally designated time. Probably a little boring but it doesn't seem like a big deal. [/quote] I text my 13 yo more often than I’d ever imagine. Is it an absolute necessity? No. But it makes our life more convenient. It was especially useful when he was home alone on Mondays this year when I was back at work or when his middle school ended at 2pm and he was home before me. Sure, we could call a landline. It’s all about convenience and I could quickly check texts during work meetings. [/quote]
