Unfortunately, you can never feel too safe in today’s world. Danger lurks at every corner, and we must remain vigilant if we are to be safe. This is especially true if you are responsible for children. Children require extra care and attention due to the dangers of child trafficking: a very real, very prevalent issue. The Child Liberation Foundation is helping parents and guardians keep kids safe with a few tips to prevent child trafficking.
While this may seem obvious at first glance, it can be tempting to engage with strangers who seem “nice” or “approachable.” But you can never really be too sure of people, especially if you don’t know them well. Avoiding stranger interaction, especially when your kids are around, can help prevent unsafe situations.
Sadly, those around you can also have impure intentions. You must have open discussions with your children about the people who are around them; of course you must use terms your kids will understand. Attempt to get to know the people your kids are associated with, and pay attention to the way they talk about them. If you notice any red flags, then take immediate action.
Social media can be highly saturated and filled with content young kids shouldn’t be viewing; anyone can post anything online. Your kids can be exposed to educational content that can help them, but also harmful content that could potentially lead to bigger problems down the road.
If you see something, say something. Many times, situations continue because people do not say something about them. While you may notice a few red flags about someone or something, it’s possible to not feel inclined to get involved because you have no “proof.” Regardless, trust your intuition and say something if it feels unsafe for you or your child.
Danger lurks all around us these days. Sometimes, we don’t know someone’s true intentions until it’s too late. Prevent dangerous situations from occurring before they do by following this guide and protecting your children. Learn more about the signs of child trafficking with the Child Liberation Foundation!
