Weekly Tip - Watch Out for Your Children!

As a parent, the safety of my children is something that is constantly on my mind. I am sure that any mom or dad will echo that sentiment.   In this holiday season, stores and malls are packed with patrons making your job even more difficult. Stay alert to your children. Never assume that they are just around the corner or hiding behind a clothing rack. Keep them in your sight and don’t hesitate to report suspicious activity to your local police.

The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children offers child safety tips along with a great deal of information for parents on their website.  Another resource to take advantage of is Wireless Amber Alert; visit the site, enter your cell number, and you will be notified in the event of a local Amber Alert via text message.

Remember that it is never too early to talk with your children about their safety.  Take advantage of the links above and be proactive with your family safety.
