It's one of those days parents dread: it's a school day off and you have to work. At least now Henry is old enough to stay home alone - no daycare arrangements needed. However, even at this stage it's not easy. So, for parents who are approaching that point in life, here are brief instructions on:
How to manage your child remotely (when you've forgotten to leave money at home)
- Have phone discussion about whether son and friend can go to Green Hornet movie by themselves on bikes (maybe)
- Call theater to make sure kids can show up with Fandango confirmation # and no credit card (yes)
- Buy tickets on Fandango to movie
- Take screenshot of Fandango confirmation page
- Figure out (again) how to print to home printer via internet
- Explain via phone how to load paper into printer after child removes it by mistake
- Email screenshot to home printer
- Make child confirm that he has bike lock and key by rattling it over phone
- Discuss time to leave house to get to movie
- Call again to remind them to leave
- Cross fingers and wait for phone call that something went wrong
