Well, thankfully it is quite different. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. It's worked for me for the past 16 years and parents appreciate my "real time" communication practice.
I honestly think a lot can be lost in an email; especially when you are dealing with someone's child.
Not all email is bad. Quick yes, no or do this or that emails are great. That's good time management. But when talking about someone's child, I've found email is not the best vehicle.
This idea of needing a "record" can be accomplished by a follow up email after a discussion takes place.
This is my last post on the subject since we are deviating quite a ways from the OP's question.
