    What gives him away is that he assumes you know how to call him. Scammers don’t do that and ask instead to send them your emails and password per Mail or text message. Totally not a scammer, busted at first glance.

    Clear, concise, and with respect. That seems exceptional for a modern parent.

    Yeah, it’s funny. But, OP, please tell him he’s awesome for me.

    I wish my mother was like this,.I’d.actually read her messages. She just uses my phone number as her personal journal. I get dozens of messages a day about nothing. I have to mute her and check every now and then, scrolling through useless shit about—hang on, I’ll look at the last three topics; dogs and horses going to heaven, liking nature and not suburbia, the sermon at a mid-week church event—and make sure nothing important happened. I’ve told her to chill, it doesn’t work.
