Family safety rules
If your child gets home unaccompanied, consider with him a permanent, safest route. Arrange with the child that he will always walk this way.
Come up with a code word with your children to make it clear that your child is speaking under the compulsion of strangers.
Specify the boundaries of the neighborhood in which the child can walk, warning him about the possibility of accidents.
It is necessary to impress upon the child that never and under no circumstances will parents, grandparents send a stranger to school, home or yard for him. If such a person approaches, whoever he calls himself, he must immediately run to a crowded place, call his parents or contact a policeman.
If a child wants to go somewhere, then he must definitely warn his parents about this, telling them where, with whom he is going and when he will return, informing them of his route. It is necessary that the child's route does not run through the forest, park, deserted and unlit places.
If the child is delayed, then he should call and ask his parents to meet him.
Form a habit for your child to talk about how he spent his time when he was left without your supervision. The child should inform the parents about frequent calls to allegedly incorrect numbers or unanswered calls.
The child must know his first and last name, the names of his parents, home address and phone number.
Children should know in which cases and how to call the police, fire service and ambulance.
Parents, remember that by buying expensive gifts for children beyond their age (expensive mobile phones, tablet computers, game consoles, etc.) that a child can use on the street, you provoke intruders to commit illegal actions against your child.
