And rightfully so! Every student in school died horribly before cell phones existed.

It was Malaria that took me out, and she wasn’t a fun date, lemme tell ya.

I mean...American schools do have somewhat of a reputation... I can kinda see why parents would want their child to be able to contact them in an emergency.

I suppose I'd be worried, too, if I was sending my kids to a war zone on a daily basis.

Ahh yes, not all the kids died, therefore emergencies don't happen. Okay then.
