Pyschologists say our parental messages actually do sink in with teens.

One other tip I’d recommend is to discuss the action plan of a wreck BEFORE they have a wreck. Put the phone number of a tow truck company in the glove box of the car your teen drives AND in their phone. The last thing you want your teen to do is call a friend if they have an accident…. or even a flat tire. And if you live in a snowy climate like we do in St Paul MN, the tow truck is also the first call if your teen ends up in a snow bank — or needs a jumpstart at the mall!
