Honestly! I phoned son 1 today to make sure that he knew where he was going for his interview for uni (Chatham). Told him what time train he had to catch from New Malden (11:25) to catch the connecting train from Waterloo East so that he would be in good time (40 minutes to spare); even factoring in the fact that he would get lost.
Made him check out google maps so that he could see the name of the road that he had to walk up (Fort Pitt Hill).
What happens? he catches the late train, gets lost and arrives one hour late, this is EXACTLY what I knew would happen even with my careful intervention. Am I surprised, no! Do I dispare, yes!

If only he had a smartphone to help him find his way... Oh, that's right, he does...
if only he knew how to use it!
Apparently his generation is "wet" (according to Jamie Oliver) so maybe there's not much you can do...
