I told mine to call every Sunday. I was trying real hard to cut the apron strings b/c that's what the books all said to do, but in retrospect, I was/am jealous of the mom's who talked to their kids daily. I admit I did/do hover on the computer to catch them online so I could IM them.
Belle, you aren't a heli mom. With daughters, there is that whole safety aspect and running around in your brain is always the "date rape drugs" etc. to worry about. I bought mine a tiny personal alarm (very loud) for night walks on campus but she laughed and said she'd never carry it. grrrrr. H used his "Commander" voice (stern) and told her to carry it so I think she does now.
