morons ...
I wish there was an easy way of informing "important calls" (generally people we owe money to) that speaking with the 8-year-old is NOT the same as "leaving a message".
Daughter #2 always assumes that the damn phone is for her, so always picks up ... and I will occasionally get told that "some guy from somewhere, I think it might have been a bank, called for you" ... and these asswipes don't call back. Sure, it would be easier if we could convince #2 to just let the damn phone ring until the answering machine picks up ... but what are these morons thinking leaving messages with a little kid???
