How to protect the child from abduction and what to do if the child is kidnapped - Lisa Alert

The public regularly conduct experiments: check how the child reacts to a meeting with an absolutely unfamiliar person who is calling him somewhere. The statistics turn out horrifying: from several tens participants of experience only one call for help. The rest obediently take the "uncle" by the hand and follow. And after all, without exception, parents are sure that their children will remain in place. More than that, most children do not know the parents' phones by heart. They do not know that in case of danger it is necessary to attract attention to themselves by any available information. Another terrible statistical fact is that the peak of the loss of children falls on the spring.A photo: GettyImagesUnder the country is not the first year the search and rescue team "Lisa Alert" is working. The volunteers of the detachment are just looking for the missing people - all, not just children. There is a group of prevention in the detachment. Volunteers conduct free classes for children and parents: they teach both of them how to behave with strangers correctly, what to do if a person offers "to go look at the kittens". Yes, you will not believe, but children are bought for such offers. The volunteers of the prevention group of the search and rescue team "Lisa Alert" told about the important rules of behavior that can save a life. Alina Pavlyukova, the head of the line of prevention of the PCA "Lisa Alert": "1. Teach your child to say "no" to strangers. Let him say: "Sorry, but my mother does not allow me to talk to strangers" .2. Explain that adults do not ask for help from a child. If they really have something, they will ask the adult. Teach your child to scream! Ironically, children are afraid to do it. The child should scream if he is lost, including in the city, and if someone tries to seize him or shows aggression. Arrange for this training in the forest and then definitely try to do it in the city. Explain to the child that it is outwardly impossible to distinguish a "good" person from "bad." Therefore, even a young girl may be bad. Explain to the child that if someone tries to force him to do something, threatening anything, up to killing his parents, he should immediately tell you about it. 6. Explain to the child that if someone else meets him after school or a circle, and you did not warn him, he must call you and clarify. He also has to do so if someone from his close relatives wants to give him a lift. Unfortunately, friends and relatives sometimes seriously quarrel and can use even the child as a means of resolving the conflict. The phone number of the child (and elderly parents) must be registered with you. The cellular operator issues printouts of his calls only to the person with whom the phone is registered.8. Use modern gadgets and programs and to protect your children and elderly relatives. In smartphones you can install programs - GPS locators of your family members. Take pictures of the child more often. If you have an actual photo, in which the child in the clothes in which you saw him before disappearing, this will facilitate the search.Photo: GettyImages10. Make it a habit to call each other when you go somewhere and when you return. Adults should show this by their example. For example, call in the evening to each other when you leave work. This useful habit can sometimes save lives. Do not forbid the child to start his page on the social network, if he asks about it, so that he does not make himself a secret account. On the contrary, sit together, make a page together, walk around the net. Teach your child the rules of safety on the Internet: do not post your photos and contacts in public, do not react to "attractive" offers from strangers, remember that he never knows who is really an unfamiliar person. Explain what dangers exist. From time to time, look through the list of "friends" of your child, pay attention to adults, if it's not teachers, see which groups he reads and what publics are signed. On the Internet, a lot of attractively presented information about drugs, suicides and other things will be poured onto the child. And yes, "whale groups" do exist and do indeed pose a threat to the child. Explain to the child the senselessness of participating in this and the fact that behind it are adults who are looking for managed children for their own purposes. We often see in the movies that the police are not in a hurry to start searching for the missing until three days pass. So, the "three-day rule" does not exist. Immediately call 112 or contact the nearest ATS. If the office suddenly refuses to take an application, dial 112 and report this to the operator, indicating the number of the department. The round-the-clock phone "Lisa Alert": 8-800-700-54-52.
