Do you expect texts when your child makes it to and from school or is that too overbearing?

I'm home when he comes from school but in the morning i expect a text to make sure he got there ok. Same goes for when he goes to a friends or his dads place. Some say it's too tiger mom but i don't care.

No. I dont expect an update unless something out of the ordinary is happening. If it’s part of normal routine we don’t text each other about it.
We do have each other on Find My Friends, so we could check, but I use it to see if he’s home to know if he’ll take the dogs out, and he checks mine to see if I’m close to somewhere he wants me to pick dinner up from.
