Make sure your kids know how to keep themselves safe
As parents, it's our job to keep our kids safe. But realistically, we can't always be with our kids 100% of the time to make sure that they're safe. That's why it's equally important for parents to teach their kids different ways on how they can keep themselves safe.
- Tell them to ask for your permission first before going with someone, even if it's a close friend or a relative.
- Teach your child to be open with their feelings, and immediately tell you if anyone has made them feel uncomfortable or has done things to make them uncomfortable.
- Have a talk with them about keeping away from strangers or people who seem very suspicious as well as red flags that would tell them that someone has an ulterior motive.
- Do some roleplaying to better teach your child how they should act when it comes to certain situations.
- Talk to them about safe people that you trust whom they can call in case of any emergency.
