[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 243520, member: 1233"] I am sorry about the bus problems. Very irresponsible of school. It is rather humorous, I must say, to hear about your husband trying to catch up to difficult child on the cell phone issue. I am glad your husband is handling this stuff so you can rest and heal. I hope you feel better soon. And that husband keeps handling at least some of this stuff. One thing my kids know if that if the phone is taken away at school, it is gone and the bill is THEIRS. The part for their phone. No adult in our home will go and pick up a phone from the office, and the office won't give them back. So that is one of our rules. The ONLY reason Jess got a phone was that she was going into the middle school with potential heart problems and the school is HUGE - she might have needed to call 911 for herself. Thankfully she didn't have the heart problem, but we still have the phone. And it is handy. But we don't "do" ringtones or texts. It ends the phone privilege for her. Wiz and his phone are my parents' issue. He is quite responsible with his also. Tyler thinks he "needs" one, but unless some major problem occurs, he will be at least a teen before he gets a phone. He tried to tell me "all" his classmates have phones. Only 4 kids in ALL 3 3rd grade classes have phones! NONE in his classroom! [/QUOTE]
