What&#x27;s different is the school EXPECTS you to have a cell phone, and come running if they call. After raising two kids this immediacy is really not necessary.
I lot of it goes back to the craziness in the healthcare system. No school wants to be sued, so they don&#x27;t have a nurse. They can&#x27;t take the kid to the hospital themselves, since the hospital won&#x27;t even see the kid unless the have insurance info. And since it takes two working parents to be able to afford to live in this country, one parent is no longer home. The madness ends when we make other choices in our lives. Go Bernie!
