Avoiding the dreaded drive for forgotten homework  

How many times have you recevied that call?  "Mom.....I forgot my homework at your house, and it's due tomorrow!"  It invariably comes at some late hour or right when you are on your way out the door.  Whenever it happens to me, it seems to come when I'm already running late to something.  Voila, enter modern technology.  My daughter has entered middle school.  So many of her assignments are required to be typewritten.  So we've set up a folder on the computer for her stuff and she puts everything in it.  So last night when that call came, I was able to just flip a switch, attach a file so easily located in her own folder, click send (I'm talking about email of course), and boom it's done.  No arguing with my ex about who is responsible for making sure she had it.  No arguing about who is going to drive it over.  No making her feel bad for being "irresponsible".  No making us feel bad because she's put in this awkward position of having two houses to live in in the first place.  Now, if only I could figure out how to email that science project she's been building in the basement!
