I'd be concerned that no one bothered to find out where the girls were.
That was what I was wondering about also. I'd be hacked if my kids didn't make it to school and no one called. A couple years ago DW & I went to a show that involved us flying out early Friday morning. DS got sick the night before- nothing major but we had him stay home with grandma. By the time we landed @ 1000 we each had 2 messages & 3 missed calls because I had called & left the message at the wrong school office.
