Reaching my son at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on his fraternity-house phone was next to impossible. Instead I began to e-mail him. This way, when I reminded him to dress warmly, eat well and study hard, I could feel confident that he'd received my message.
After my second lengthy e-mail communiqué, he called home and assured me that everything was fine. "By the way, Mom," he said, chuckling, "I think you've invented cybernagging."
