Having a Better (and Safer) Night on the Town

I am frequently e-mailed by parents wanting to know how to prepare their teenagers who are going off to college. What are the biggest safety lessons I've learned from doing this blog?

While I don't pretend to have all the answers, I have put together a fact sheet for young adults that may help parents talk to their young adult children. It's called Having a Better (and Safer) Night on the Town.

The safety tips in this fact sheet are based on many of the cases found on this site and have been reviewed by a few parents of the missing.

It can be found in the Footprints Reading Room (click on Resources on the navigation bar to get there). Here is the link if you'd like to share it.
