Safety Strategies for Children

It’s back to school so be sure your children know the following strategies published by Child Find Canada:

– the  “buddy system” to never go to places  on their own.

-to “check first” with their parents before going anywhere with anyone or accepting gifts.

-to trust their instincts by being assertive if someone tries to impose themselves in ANY way that causes discomfort.

-remind them they are smart and strong and have the right to be safe.

I wish all children a happy, safe return to school.
