I have a student who is usually well behaved but must have been having an off day today. She wouldn't sit in her assigned seat, wasn't completing her work, was playing on her cell phone, and whenever she got up and walked by this boy, she cursed him out. I assigned her detention and called her mother to get permission. She didn't answer, but did indeed TEXT me back. I tried to call her again later, no answer, so I sighed and sent her a text in response.
Now, I don't have a child. (Thank god, I already have 90 of them.) But I'm PRETTY sure I wouldn't text my daughter's teacher, ESPECIALLY if I had never even spoken to her before.
But maybe that's just me.
Plus, she skipped detention anyway. I'm not always sure why I make the effort.
