How to Keep our Children Safe from Strangers and Pedophiles10 Tips a Parent Must Know to Help Keep a Child Safe!
2. Know where your child is at all times. It's a good idea to have your son or daughter regularly check in with you. 3. Establish a family pass code. In that manner, if you have a message which you wish to convey to your child through a third party, the third party will provide your child with the pass code. Instruct your child never to ask a third party for the family pass code and to keep that password secret. Change your password after using it. 4. Teach your child that it's okay to say "No" to an adult. Children need to know that if something is wrong, it is their right to say no, even to adults, teens and other kids. 5. Make sure your child knows who to call in the event he or she is lost or has an emergency. For example, he or she should know his or her full name, address, home telephone number, your work and cell telephone numbers, additional person he or she can contact such as a grandparent or trusted family friend. 6. Tell your child never to keep a secret from you that another adult asks him or her to keep. 7. Instruct your child never to help a stranger who appears to need assistance. Tell your child that the only safe way to help a person in need is to go to a trusted adult or the police. An established and successful trick of many predators is to appear helpless to get the assistance of a child or young adult. For example, serial killer Ted Bundy commonly pretended to have a broken arm in order to abduct young women. 8. Instruct your child never to go with a stranger or acquaintance anywhere alone, visit the house of a stranger or acquaintance alone or allow a stranger or acquaintance into your house when he or she is alone without your prior knowledge and permission. Sometimes children are abused by people whom they casually know. The point is to restrict strangers and acquaintances from having "alone" time with your child. 9. Tell your child to scream "You're not my Mom or Dad" if he or she is approached or threatened by anyone. Children need to know that they should not be embarrassed and need to attract attention to themselves in an emergency. 10. Be willing to discuss safety matters with your child. Create a game for your child so you can present scenarios to test his or her understanding of basic safety rules. The presentation should be fun and lively so your child is not threatened by the topic, but so he or she continually sharpens his or her skills in taking care of himself or herself. Although it may appear that your child understands what you have taught him or her, oftentimes children have problems applying the safety rules to factual circumstances. Beware the Unknown includes a section of ready-made scenarios to facilitate this process for teachers, parents and guardians. Studies show that parents can be as effective as trained professionals in teaching their children to protect themselves from offenders. You can make a big difference in keeping your child safe. These are just a
few of the tips that are included and interwoven into the story
of Beware the Unknown. Beware the Unknown is a new children's
book which teaches kids in a fun way to be safe.
