Take the It Can Wait Texting Pledge!
Thank you for stopping by little island studios, please subscribe by email to follow along in family fun!
Every time I go out I have to swerve at least once to avoid someone not driving safely, because they are either texting or chatting on their cell phones. Every time. And I must say the majority of the time it is moms, dads and young adults...not teens, doing the driving and texting!
There is no text or phone call that cannot wait! If your kid's are at home with a sitter, then pull over or call when you get there.
In my opinion texting and/or talking on the phone when you are with your spouse and/or with the kids is just rude. You are in the car together. Enjoy each other. Talk. Laugh. Chat about your day, ask them about theirs and listen to what they are saying.
Here are a few things you can do to bring awareness to others and perhaps remind yourself!

The campaign starts as students head back to school, and focuses on Sept. 19, No Text on Board Pledge Day, when everyone is urged to make a lifelong commitment to never text and drive.

Manners matter. And in this case - bad manners are down right dangerous!
So join me and take the pledge to NEVER text and/or talk while you drive! Your kids thank you for both setting a good example and keeping them safe.

Texting and driving should be as unacceptable as drinking and driving.
