2.Toward Keitai-managed family
Mother of 8-year-old and 10-year-old sons (on her way to pick them up from their after-school lessons): I always call to say “We're done, so we’re coming home.” Once, when I neglected to call, my husband scolded me saying, “Since you have a keitai, you could at least call!”
Author: But doesn’t the lesson always end at the same fixed time?
Mother: Yes, but even still, I always call home to announce that we’re on our way. My husband also calls from the office without fail.
