Helpful Home Security and Safety Tips
Childrens' Safety Tips
For children - everyday rules to keep you safe:
- Always walk or play with a friend or friends. Always walk along streets you know. Never take shortcuts through wooded areas or empty lots.
- If someone tries to grab hold of you or take you away, fight, kick and scream: Shout out: "Help! This is not my Mom or Dad!"
- Always tell your parents who you will be with, where you will be and when you will be home.
- Never talk to strangers, no matter how friendly they seem. Always stay at least an arm's length away from a stranger.
- If you get separated from Mom or Dad in the store, go to the nearest sales person or uniformed security guard and ask for help.
- Never ever leave the store to go to the car or to look for Mom or Dad in the parking lot.
- If a car stops or slows down beside you, run fast in the direction from which the car came.
- Never get into a stranger's car even if they say someone you love is hurt or if they say they are supposed to pick you up. Your Mom and Dad would never send a stranger to get you.
