Funny how an envelope from the school doesn't have nearly the impact as a letter from the AG.

Then they cry "No one TOLD me..."

edit: in this case I am mostly doubting the mother of the student not getting any notice. I don't believe it for a second.
Around here, response is usually triggered by the "you will be sent to collections" sticker.
