Communication

I wonder who is the most important person in parents lives.  I would think it would be their family, at least that would be my hope.  When my children go to school I hope that I keep clear communication between the teacher and myself and I do not rely on my Kindergartener to communicate with the teacher for me.  I received a note from a parent stating their student was to be a car rider until further notice.  I began sending him to the car rider line.  After about a week or so he started getting in my bus rider line. I showed him the note from his mom and reminded him he is to be a car rider.  I asked if he had another note from his mom.  He didn't even have a backpack, much less a note so I sent him to the car rider line. His mom called school later that afternoon and wondered why he didn't get off the bus. We assured her he was a car rider because that was the last note we received.  She quickly informed us he was now to be a bus rider.  If she would have called an hour earlier and told us that or not relied on her Kindergarten son he would not have missed the bus.
