-Not to contact S from work as much. Only in regards to child related things.
Don't take this the wrong way, but you might need to question how important is that child related thing, before you pick up the phone. Ask yourself if it can wait a little longer or do you really need to interrupt her day at that moment. You don't want to appear like a nuisance, so make sure it is a legit reason.
B/c the board members tell newcomers not to make contact except for child related issues.......many newcomers use it as their crutch. "Oh, it's legal (acceptable) if it's about the kids. Nobody can give me a 2x4 if it's kid related". They think of all kind of "child related" things. It really becomes an excuse to contact the WAS.
Not saying this is what you do, but if you find you are contacting a lot, maybe make a list of the things as you think of them. Then you can discuss several things in one contact.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
