I'm so glad to see you raising awareness about this. I am especially concerned about the texting and driving because that can impact others as well.

Shes been putting her purse in the back seat when she gets in the car so she isn't tempted. We aren't very good examples though. I'm often sitting at red lights checking my phone and then getting honked at because I'm sitting too long.

Much of the discussion is about having these discussions and how to make sure that we, as parents, take ownership of becoming educated enough to educate our children. We spent an hour at last week's discussion offering tips for the parent/child discussion. I'd love if you would attend one. I will be speaking at Norwood Academy on Nov 19th and sometime after at Springfield High School.
