I think my wife is hacking into his school email to look for any outstanding items. I really thought we would be past these tactics at this stage of his life.
Back on topic, I have not gone beyond hello with his coaches and have no plans to go further unless they initiate the small talk. I am ready not to talk to the other parents too, just the ones who join me in the outfield fence.
We're hacking school emails too. Don't feel bad. It's this generation. They consider reading emails as optional. But the schools still see it the way us older folks do. And we don't want any surprises because someone was too busy with texts and DMs and forgot to read his email.
