Ext. specialist gives advice on protecting children By BIRDINE TL'LLIS Program Assistant Morrow Co. Extension Service It's hard for parents to realize they are bringing up their children in a world very different from the one parents knew ai children. When parents were young, in both rural and urban areas, children could play unsuper vised in their neighborhood or run to the corner grocery with little fear of harm coming to them. Today, crimes of vio lence against children have reached unprecedented num bers. An estima ted M.OOO children are abducted by strangers each year in the United States, Without instilling unneces sary alarm in them, parents can teach children safety practices that are useful in many situations, says Mar celle Straatman, Oregon State University Extension Service human development specia list. As early as possible, children should learn to pro tect themselves from indivi duals who would prey on them. Straatman advises to teach your children: their full name, address, area code, and phone number. how to make long dis tance phone calls by direct dialing and by dialing "0" for the operator. how and when to call the emergency number, usually 911. not to obey orders from strangers or to help them look for a lost kitty or other objects. never to go near a car with someone In it or to get in a car without your permission. to tell you if someone offers them gifts, money or wants to take their picture. not to tell anyone over the phone they are home alone, or answer the door; and to call a neighbor or police if someone tries to force their way into the house. not to go into anyone's house without your permis sion. that no one has the right to touch them or make them feel uncomfortable. They have the right to say, "No." Parents must be constantly vigilant about the activities and the associations of their children, Straatman says. Child molesters may live in your neighborhood and an abductor can quickly whisk a child away on the trip between home and school. The specialist also states that parents should: never leave a child alone in a car. be involved In children's activities s you are familiar with their acquaintances. develop a code word to use when anyone other than you is to pick them up. listen when your child tells you they do not want to be with someone. Find out why they want to avoid this person even if it's a close relative or friend. have your child finger printed. Keep these and yearly photos in a safe place. Photos of children under two should be taken four times a year. know where dental records can be obtained.
