    In Ye Good Olde Days, if there was an emergency, parents phoned
    the school and had them fetch the kid from class but I guess
    that isn't good enough anymore.

    I had a scheduling change with my wife yesterday and was forced to go

    Yes, which is fine. I don't think anyone wants kids to be cut off
    from parents or even friends as long as it isn't interfering with
    classes unless it is a dire emergency.

    I can understand the desire to draw very specific lines, or to exclude
    all phone calls. A 15-year old can have dire dating emergencies, hair emergencies, clothing choice emergencies... :)
