What a crazy bitch. I hope you didn’t send them + removed their tracking ability.

Hi yeah I’m sure you know this but thats against FERPA and you don’t have to give it to them. If they call the school and the school gives it to them literally report them because its a ~50k fine for ever violation. If its a letter its 50k for every page

Source: i used to be a peer mentor and had to deal with parents like this all the time, i had to become very familiar with US laws and regulations on student information which is protected.

Edit: cricket is a good phone plan, and you can buy phones off facebook for pretty cheap. Work study and student hire jobs may also be available for you (like i said you probably know that but you’d be surprised with how many people didn’t know these things when i was a PM)

Your parents shouldn’t even have access to your login stuff; it’s probably against your university’s policy.
