Bill O’Reilly, anchor, Fox News Channel, says this of Elayne Bennett’s new book: “There is no higher calling than protecting America’s children. In “Daughter’s in Danger”, Elayne Bennett does just that in a vivid way.”

Parents, home time is critical. Be involved, invite your teen’s friends over, ask questions.

Remember, you are not your child’s best friend; you are her parent.

You find a copy of Elayne’s book on Amazon or your local bookstore.
