To send New Year messages

14 replies

helloiamhere · 31/12/2019 00:33

Is it okay to send happy new year messages to people that have impact on your family in 2019?
People such as your sons teacher.
I do not want to overstep any boundaries by sending them a message over the break if that would be inappropriate.

How can you got your sons' teachers number, email address etc?

I wouldnt to be honest

RozHuntleysStump · 31/12/2019 00:35

Don’t.

I wouldn’t send that message to your child’s class teacher... boundaries.

Glitteryone · 31/12/2019 00:36

Definitely not. Personal friends and family only.

Only way I'd be doing that is if I did a "send to all" because I wouldn't even look at who would be getting it and it would be generic. I wouldn't go out of my way to send personal messages, especially to dc teacher.

No
Don’t send messages to your child’s teacher .
You shouldn’t have the teachers personal mobile to be honest or email .

I would only send to or expect to receive NY messages from family or close/long standing friends.

I wouldn't send one to any of my dc's teachers.

avamiah · 31/12/2019 00:49

WatcherintheRye,
Totally agree with you .

People such as your sons teacher.

Is this person male?

Fuck no, at any rate.

@Butchyrestingface I don't understand your question about them being male? What would that have to do with it?

His teacher is a lady in her mid to late forties (age is a guess).
I am in my late 20s and it's just me and my son, who is in his first year of school.
I wasn't sure what was appropriate so I thought I'd ask here.

I wouldn't. It would make me feel weird if I were her.
