Why? Because this woman does not have a bunch of names to put on a sheet for school? Maybe she has a great relationship with her family but they are just not close enough to pick up her child if they could not get in touch with her. Having family close does not make you "blessed". Having family whom you have a great relationship with throughout your lives is being "blessed".

YOu are perfectly welcome to answer the question. But Eggd claims that sahms are more available to get phone calls due to their work status--that they are always available and near a phone and that wohms are not. I was thinking you are a wohm, but i really wasn't sure, since you are newish. That's why I asked you to find out--since you were agreeing with Eggd & that's what she was saying--it's what this whole particular debate is about.

Same here. If I turn it off for something like church or a movie it often stays off until the next day. Sometimes I have to take my charger to work because I notice it is dead when I am walking out the door.

One time recently I was in the emergency room with my older kid -- I'd picked him up from a party and he'd dislocated his finger. My husband was asleep when I left, so when I saw the finger & knew it wasn't serious but was beyond my help, I just stopped at the E.R. on the way home. Of course the E.R. was busy and we ended up waiting about three hours. Meanwhile DH wakes up around 1 am and we're not home, so he tries calling me to find out why. And of course, the cell phones don't work in the E.R. So he's calling the people who had the party to find out what time we left, and when he finds out it's three hours ago, he's got half our friends out driving the route, sure we are dead in a ditch someplace. All's well that ends well, and he was quite relieved to find out, after we left and I saw that I had something like 4000 missed calls, that we'd ONLY been in the E.R.

But if my other kid had had an emergency during that time, DH would have had to handle it on his own.

That's not the point...otherwise why have insurance, a will, power of attorney, medical power of attorney and so forth?
