Make communication your
family's highest priority. A family stays tuned to itself first, not
the TV or the Internet.
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
Teach your children respect
for themselves and for others.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Acknowledge your children's fears. Remind children it's
a parent's job to keep them safe and that you'll protect them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Walk the neighborhood with your family to help children
become aware of their surroundings. Teach them when to avoid strangers
and where to find a safe place in an emergency.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build self-esteem. At all ages, children react better to approval and affection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you own firearms, protect your family and your community by locking them up. Gain maximum security by storing your ammunition in a safe location away from firearms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get to know your neighbors. Don't let fences wall you off from relationships with the neighbors around you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you know of someone with a substance abuse problem, don't look the other way. Help them get help. You can make a difference.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Practice fire safety. Talk with your family about the best response in the event of a fire — including how to call 911 for help after exiting the home.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Minimize risks that threaten your financial security. If someone makes you an offer on a product or investment that seems too good to be true, it probably is. Always verify a company's references through a reliable source.
