>Giving your work business card to your kids is different than writing your number down. Again. For the fourth time.
Do you get it now?
You must have skipped over the entire middle of my comment.
>making it about you
It's a conversation on a public forum, I do more or less the same thing, I'm chiming in with my experience, yes.
But this is obviously unproductive. You're right that I'm defensive over it, which is probably a sign for me to step back.
>Also he literally states there is a class list of numbers all parents have anyway!
Side note, but my kids have friends in other classes and I'm not allowed to see those class lists because my kid isn't in the class. I know, I know, I'm making it about me again. But, perhaps there are similar rules elsewhere.
I actually like the idea here. When I was a kid it was always give the landline number of the friend's house, or it's in the class list from school.
Nowadays landlines are more or less gone, so the card approach is a good one.
