Communication

Email is a very funny way to communicate. When you send an email, it can be stressful when you don't receive an answer right away. As Grandpa mentioned, there could be a number of reasons the person on the other end isn't answering. Most likely, they are not by their computer or they are busy and can't answer right away. Basically Grandpa, don't take it personally when we don't get back to you right away. We still love you!! It can be a dangerous way to communicate. If you are emotional when you write you may say something you would rather not have on record later. If the person reading the email to is emotional they may put meaning to your words that you didn't intend. In cases where emotions are involved it is probably best to write what you need to write and let it sit unsent for a day, reread it and see how you feel about it. The best advice anyone gave me regarding email is don't write anything you wouldn't shout to a room full of people!
