Electronix Systems wanted to take time out of our day to help you, our community, stay safe. As more media coverage goes on in regards to the clown sightings, social media threats and police reports. We are sure that you are concerned about the safety of yourself and your children. With Halloween right around the corner, we want to make sure you remind your children of the top 9 safety tips to remember if they ever get into a situation that they feel threatened.
- Always be aware of your surroundings.
- Before the kids leave where they are supposed to be, make sure they tell you where they are going and who they are with.
- Always remember to use the buddy system.
- Wear light colored clothing especially at night, this increases your visibility to others.
- If your child has a cell phone, please make sure it is always charged in case they happen to need it in an emergency.
- 9-1-1, it’s a number that can save their lives. Make sure they know if/when they even slightly feel uncomfortable to pre-dial the number so all they have to do is hit call.
- Use your security system whether your home or not! It is there to protect you.
- Prepare your child for awkward situations by role playing with them. The more they do this, the more comfortable and confident they will be in their surroundings.
- Anything from a stranger should not be taken! Ex: candy, money, gifts or rides.
