Laura @elby2007.bsky.social · 05/10/2025When I was a kid, knowing your phone number was a requirement to enter KG! I'm not saying that should necessarily be the case, but for safety purposes, shouldn't kids know their parents' numbers? I can think of many situations, emergency or not, where that could be helpful. 130
