Tips For Parents

Tips for ParentsWelcome to the parents guide to keeping your children in their car seats, and making sure that they come home every night on time and unharmed.

Here are some tools to make sure that you and your child are on the same page at all times:

1.     Teenager/Parent Driving Contracts:

These contracts help define the boundaries that you as a parent have to establish, so that your teens can drive safely while still having the freedom that comes with getting their own license.  Remember that being able to drive is a privilege not a right.

 2.     Careless Driving Consequences

With the following PDF file, you as a parent will be able to set up your own punishments for your teen, if they are caught driving carelessly for any number of reasons.

 3.     Teensurance

Teensurance powered by Safeco is the revolutionary new way to keep an eye on your teen, while still providing them the freedom that they need while driving.  Included in the Teensurance Package is a small chip that when placed in the dash of the car, gives you the speed and location of the car at any time.  Teensurance can be integrated with your cell phone, as well as your computer, so that you can get an update anytime that you want it.  With Teensurance you can also set up location notices, so that your teen can avoid that embarrassing phone call home when they get to where they need to go.  Safeco's Teensurance can also help your teen avoid some of life's more frustrating moments, with features like remote unlocking, and 24/7 roadside assistance which all come with the Teensurance Package. Teensurance can not only give you as a parent peace of mind, but it can also help your teen become a better driver.  

 4.     The DMV

Going to the DMV can be a very stressful time, with huge lines that never seem to recede.  You think you have all the required documentation for your transaction, only to find out that after waiting an hour in line, it's the wrong documentation.  Go to the DMV's website right now to get all the up-to-date information they offer.
