Assuming they’re old enough to have a phone, obviously.

I have to send my daughter reminders to do things all the time because she’s extremely forgetful. She’s not annoyed by that, she’s asked me to do it. And whenever I send her one, I get a read receipt and no reply. And I’ve told her a bunch of times that it’s rude to not reply to texts like that, but she keeps doing it.

It’s driving me crazy. She’s a good kid, but why doesn’t she return texts?!

    So they want them to do this reminder thing, but don’t even want to reply with a simple “thanks” and that is supposed to be acceptable? They get 5 to 10 text an hour? Who cares? “Thanks” takes about 1 second and the person that is helping you (based on your request) would like it - how is that even a question at that point?
