[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]16:40 How old is your child? I'm going to orientation in late August and parent's weekend in November but in between my child is on his/her own![/quote] +1. Call your kid frequently to ask about her new friends, how the local pizza joint is, and whether she needs a new winter coat. But don't ask if she's completed that English Lit reading yet.[/quote]I would text more than call. It'll work a lot better and elicit a faster response even if it's just a few words. I get more texts than calls. Love it.[/quote] I insist on weekly calls because I can pick up on emotion and much better on the phone than by text. You can notice pauses, hesitations, starts and stops, etc. when talking live to someone. We text in between sometimes sure, but those calls happen like clockwork. [/quote]
