Getting a string of missed calls from your child’s school can be many parents‘ worst nightmare. The panic sets in as you run through the various possible scenarios… Was there a terrible accident? An active shooter? Is your baby okay?
When one working mom saw no less than 16 calls from her 7-year-old’s school, she immediately went into a flat spin. Especially since her husband had been listed as the primary point of contact.
Imagine her surprise when she found out that the emergency wasn’t too big a deal after all. But things would go on to take a stranger turn when the school accused the woman of ‘child abandonment‘ for not answering her phone.
