The kids are out of school, the sun is shining longer and play time is in full effect!  Whether your children are swimming at pools with friends or are home alone for longer periods of time, there are a few tips you should consider to keep the kids safe.   For children coming from divorced homes, The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children suggests making sure all of your custody documents are in order and certified copies are available in case your children are not returned from a scheduled summer visit.  NCMEC also published a list for parents to review with children. 

The goal is safety!

1.  MAKE SURE children know their full names, address, telephone numbers and how to use the telephone. 

2.  BE SURE children know what to do in case of an emergency and how to reach you using cell phone or pager number.  Children should have a neighbor or trusted adult they may call if they’re scared or there’s an emergency.
