B002_Education Reform By Bush2.txt

Radio Address by the President to Nation on Youth Violence But, still, we have more to do. At my direction, the White House Council on Youth Violence has developed a new website and toll-free information line to help parents and educators get the facts they need to reduce youth violence. The website address is www.safeyouth.org. And the toll-free number is 1-866-SAFE-YOUTH. That's www.safeyouth.org, and 1-866-SAFE-YOUTH. I'm also pleased to release another important resource -- a guide for parents on communicating better with teenagers. It incorporates the latest research as well as the best ideas from the White House Conference on Teenagers, which Hillary and I sponsored last year. We'll distribute this publication nationwide through the website, the toll-free line and with the assistance of school principals, school nurses and pediatricians. Like all parents, Hillary and I know it's not always easy to talk with your children about sensitive subjects. That's why this new guide is so very valuable -- because it teaches parents how to listen more carefully to their children and nurture relationships built on trust, love, discipline and respect.
