    I also think there are times when you have to answer. There's nothing wrong with saying, "Excuse me, please, I better get this."

    We have caller ID. I would pickup if it was my DH or my kids school. At this time I would also pick up if it was my mom as she is out of state taking care of my aunt for 8 weeks during a stem cell transplant so she calls when she has a chance. I think "just let it GO!" is not always a good thing. Kids sick at school, at a playdate, at grandparents, DH husband calling from work. We should be able to decide if it is nessesary to answer or not.

    Seriously? The phone does not OWN you! Let it go! Just let it GO!
