Cannot be added to a group chat

We have a group chat that I left by mistake; I was trying to remove a number but it removed my other number too.

My sons tried to add me back and kept getting this message. We all have iPhones and have iMessages turned on. We can chat individually via iMessage.

To rejoin a group chat on iMessage, check for iMessage activation, ask your sons to create a new group chat, check contact information, sign out and back into iCloud, reset network settings, restart your iPhone, and check for iOS updates. If these steps don't work, consider seeking further troubleshooting options.
