[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My issue would not be so much about misjudging the duration of her hair appointment, but about excerising poor judgement by not calling you. I would definitely have a serious conversation and emphasize the latter. Sh*t happens. But I would want to know ASAP, so that I can decide on the proper course of action.[/quote] OP here, thank you and yes. If she is telling the truth (and I think she is), she left her hair appointment an hour ahead of pick up time and hit some traffic (school is about 20 min away from where she was sans traffic). BUT she had at least half an hour after pick up time to alert me. When I asked how she would have done it differently if she could rewind time, she didn't mention calling me. When I told her she always needs to call me in any kind of situation when late or if kids are hurt, she said it would have added to her stress in the car. (!!) She also said she thinks her GPS isn't working and wants to get a new phone... I have laid out the requirement clearly (call immediately). While we selected a college graduate, 23 years old, a teacher who wants to work with kids for her career and there are many wonderful things about yet personality, this isn't the first time we've had something come up around poor judgement. I have not gone through rematch and really dread the idea of it...[/quote]
