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.

I don't think it's unreasonable. My hubby and I text each other to say we've got to work ok in the morning and before we leave to come home every day (we both drive a lot for work). It's more about caring than "control".

@Fluffybull Imagine a teacher having to text to each parent twice a day. They are already busy with a lot of different things. Only text if they didn’t show up and nobody called in for them. Either that or home school
