A trusted adult who knows the code word can pick up your child if necessary. * Make sure your child knows their full name, address and phone number. * Teach your child how to reach you (home, office, mobile) * Teach your child how to call the police. * Have a plan in case your child gets separated from you in public. * Teach your child to stay in groups of friends when going anywhere. * Tell your children about child abductions in simple and easy to understand terms. Awareness can help them protect themselves. * Avoid clothing and toys with your child's name on it. A child may not fear someone who knows his/her name. * Promote an environment in which your child feels free to talk to you. * Let your child know that you will pick them up at any time, any place. * Listen closely when your child talks about friends or aquain- tances they spend time with in your absence. * Check all potential babysitters and older friends of your child. * Teach your child to recognize suspicious behavior and collect descriptions. * Urge your child to think escape/survival if he or she were ever abducted. * Get to know your neighbors and the children in the area. Make sure your child's friends know your house is safe and they can seek help from you. * Check with your local law enforcement to find out if there are sexual offenders in your area. * Have a copy of your child's photo available and know what clothing your child is wearing each day. * Keep up-to-date medical/dental history and finger print cards. How children can protect themselves * Always tell your parents where you are going and who you are with. * Never answer the door if alone. * Do not invite anyone in the house without the permission of a parent or babysitter. * NEVER get into anyone's car without permission. * Don't tell anyone on the phone that your parents are not home. Instead tell them that your parents can't come to the phone and take a message. * Don't go to restrooms in out-of-the-way places without a trusted adult. * Don't take short cuts. Always use well-traveled streets. * Never go to playgrounds or movies alone. * Go to the nearest cashier if lost or separated from a parent in a store or mall. * Do not take candy or other gifts from strangers without asking a parent first. * Never hitch-hike. * Stay away from isolated areas or abandoned buildings. * If you do not know the driver of a car that slows down or stops near you, run home, to the police department or to a public place where there are people. Do not run and hide. * If an adult approaches to ask for directions, step back, tell them you don't know and walk away. Adults should ask other adults for directions. * If forced toward a building or car, scream "help," scatter belongings and fight. * No one has the right to touch any part of your body that a bathing suit would cover. If someone touches you in a way that feels uncomfortable, tell them in a loud voice that it is your body and they don't have the right to touch you, even if it is a relative or friend. Tell an adult you can trust and keep telling until someone believes you. * If you see someone unusual hanging around a schoolyard or a park, tell your parents. * Tell a parent about anyone who exposes themselves. * Don't believe any adult who asks you to keep a secret from your parents. Stranger Danger: Tricks strangers use * A stranger may quickly approach the victim. This element of surprise does not allow the child to think about what is happening and get away. * A stranger may pose as an authority figure (police, firemen, security) and ask the child to leave with them. * A stranger may try to bribe the child with money, candy, toys, cute pets, etc. * A stranger may tell the child there is a crisis such as family illness and say a parent told them to pick the child up. * A stranger may approach with compliments to appeal to child's ego. * A stranger may approach with false caring, promise or knowing child's name if noted on child's possessions (shirt, lunchbox, toy). * A stranger may suggest playing games or asking for help, such as directions or to help find a lost pet. * A stranger may fake injury requesting help * Children often idolize adults, allowing false trust. Strangers prey on this false trust. , / Michael W. Barton, D.D.S.
