But your child's school nurse might not, in an emergency.

Your child's school nurse would be exactly the type of person who would leave a message

		Not necessarily. Ours would work down the list of numbers she had for me, my wife, and other emergency contacts without leaving a message. My wife got pulled out of a meeting at work once despite me being the parent at home because I missed a call from the school and they didn't bother to leave a message.

They might not.. But you'd very likely have their number saved on your phone. Might even have them as an un-mutable contact. My wife/kids and their school are all on the "never mute" list.

		> But you'd very likely have their number saved on your phone. I certainly don't. Every call I get from the school seems to come from a different number. And the camp she was at when she hurt her leg and had to be taken for immediate medical attention. I get it, in your world, in your experience, it all works out. But in mine, it just doesn't. From experience, I _know_ this is true.
