May I give you my view as a stay at home mother of four kids. As you well can imagine, I am exponentially busy! When I am at home, rather than in the car, I get at least 4-6 telemarketer calls, still. They are all prerecorded sales pitches, except for Credit Card offers, which use a real telemarketer. It is a sad waste of time and energy to answer these calls, as I do not carry Caller ID. Can't afford that, or the time & energy. I'm broke paying for kids' sports and lessons. Please don't allow these prerecorded messages. It doesn't always have to be about the $!! We're real Americans who appreciate as few interruptions in our hectic schedules as possible. Please put a stop to telemarketing calls! Thanks so much for hearing the position of an American mother.
