Help - worried about parents?

Question

my mom and dad left about 3 hours ago, driving to see my sister at college. the drive takes about 3, 4 hours so they left early and my parents told me to call them when i woke up this morning. about an hour ago, i did, and no one has answered. i have since called them each many times, and left voice mail messages. i even have called my sister and asked her if they were there yet, and they aren't. what should i do? when my parents drive, they ALWAYS have their cell phones in their pockets or right in front of them, and theyre set to ring loudly. i know theyd call me right back if for some reason they couldnt answer when i called, especially my mom who isn't driving. it's been over an hour and i'm really worried about this, what should i do? :/

Answer 1

Don't forget they could be "roaming" or out of service area where they can't get a signal. Be patient and remember that they are probably JUST fine, and can't get the call at the moment!

Answer 2

Call your sister back and tell her to call you the second she's heard from them. There are a lot of non scary reasons that they could be late and not call. Flat tire, bad traffic,phone's turned off, out of range ect. Read a book, take a walk, watch a movie talk on the phone to a friend (only if you have call waiting) to pass the time. If something is wrong as soon as you find out, call an aunt or uncle, grandparent, or adult family friend for support and advice.

Answer 3

maybe they were in an area where they weren't getting good signals? call your sister back and try your parents again?

i hope they answer

Answer 4

try not to worry to much,easier said than done,keep in touch with your sister,and if you hear nothing in next hour call the police

Answer 5

Wait for your call.
