As a grandmother of two little girls, ages 3 and 6, I know that is engaged in providing children from home. Every little trip – fundamental production; errands, picking up groceries, shopping at target, or grab a burger at McDonald 's. Personally I think that allows children to experience this great big world is vital to their overall growth. It's worth the risks.
However, leaving homes with infants, toddlers and children requires great caution, ambitions and energy. The most important is forethought. Anyone who wishes to delve into the real world with little and keep everything from harm should bear in mind these security tips.
Know your enemy
Remove your Pink glasses. Know the risks associated with the security of their children from a House. Even if you don't see them that there are bad people out there who prey on children Steal children, ill-treatment of children and even kill children. These terrible creatures are among us. (My daughter was snatched right off her bike, stranger one block from home in a safe suburban neighborhood!)
When I was a girl, everyone thought it was safe to allow children to travel freely in the neighborhood or at the store. No more. In 1981, when John Walsh's son Adam was abducted from a Sears toy Department and then killed, shops are no longer safe places for children. There was a time when it was safe to send your kids to public restroom only or wait at a bus stop without parental supervision. No more.
Prepare yourself
Make sure you are ready to perform this task. Here are a few "safe travel tips. Don't leave home without charged mobile phone and keep it in a convenient location like your right pocket. Use the wallet with a strap that crosses over both breasts are free both hands. Think ahead and put your diaper bag, baby carrier, baby carriages, etc. in your facility before you bring children into the car. If you have more than two children to care about, get someone to help get them in your car. Don't even think about leaving home without knowing exactly what you can handle infants and baby gear.
Prepare your children
Teach your children about "stranger danger" and what if they face it: shout, Run, fight back and tell someone. Show them who go for help if they get lost or fearful while in a store or restaurant, such as employee name badges, table service or guard. If you can make sure your kids know their names, their parents and their home town. Try to have a mobile phone with GPS tracking in your child's backpack or Pocket and, of course, teach your children to use mobile phone and how and when to dial 911. If you can swing it, to send their children to classes.
Tighten
You are one of the tough mother? If you don't, it's time to tighten. Your life or the lives of your children might be someday. A woman or child in this world is a dangerous occupation. Learn some self-defense skills. Self-defence, study a martial art or read a book about personal safety. If you can't protect yourself, as you will be able to effectively protect your children? It's never too late to tighten. I was thirty-eight years old when I got my black belt in Taekwondo and fifty-seven, when I got my second degree.
In my new book, Outsmarting the bad guys: personal safety guide for women, I offer tips to avoid risks, as well as describe the methods of "smack down" for use if necessary. There is even a chapter about how you can teach your kids self-protection.
Be here now (alert, aware now fully &)
Predators are poor victims. If they want children, they will look for weak or distract the mother or the medical practitioner. Frustrated mother with children is a perfect storm for trouble. Here are a few things that distract mothers: talk on the cell phones, texting, shopping, chatting with companions, reading books, fumbling with baby gear, etc. That takes your full attention to your children is a dangerous distraction. Children abducted in the blink of an eye. If you want to take their children in public places, be ready to abandon the insanity and focus entirely on what's going on around you.
Hang on expensive life!
Never let go of their children when you're in public places. A snugly in the hand or by hand. Never let your kids wander off without you. Never walk away from a child in a stroller or basket. Never assume you are absolutely safe in a particular place, even on platforms or school. I was shopping the other day and rounded corner and came to the baby in the basket without parents here! If I wanted to steal a beautiful baby, there's my golden chance. Instead, I stood calmly as the Royal Guard and waited for the mother baby back-to-child transmission. I gave her the intense glare and I could tell she had received my message: don't leave your children alone even one second!
I hope I'm afraid you just have to really think about personal safety and security of your children. I also hope you will take care of personal safety as you care about security in your home. Be safe out there!
