  • Children should know how to dial 911 make it simple always tell them 911 not any other number.
  • Children, even young ones, should know their name, address, and phone number (put it in their cloths).
  • Caution teenagers about “blind dates” or meeting someone they do not know or someone they met on the Internet, we see this go bad weekly on our patrols.
  • Let children know they should not give out personal information, such as home address, absence of adults, etc. over the phone or on the internet or in public places.
  • Teach children to (Scream it) say NO to strangers or even people they know if they are uncomfortable with the situation. Most abusers are someone you and they know well.
