The Problem
Over 800,000 children go missing annually. Although there is a slim chance that your child will go missing permanently, there is a strong chance that your child will at one point, wander off and give you a scare. In both situations, child locators can be a life-saver.
Child locators are designed to help you find your child in a hectic situation. Most of these devices beep when the child is either out of range or when the parent presses a panic button. This means that if your child is abducted or just wanders off, the loud beeping noise will act as a deterrent to possible predators and help you locate your child.
Suggestions for Reducing Risk
The challenge of risk reduction belongs to parents and other caregivers. While it is unrealistic to expect children to keep themselves safe, they should still know some basic rules for avoiding danger:
Basic Rules
- Without your permission, a child should never get into a car, even with someone familiar.
- Keep in mind that unfamiliar adults shouldn't ask children for help, they should ask other adults.
- Have your children alert you if an unfamiliar adult approaches them.
- Make sure your child knows not to go with an unfamiliar adult without getting your permission.
All parents know that it is important to give their children some level of responsibility so that they can learn on their own. Although this is important, it is also important to establish rules that hinge on checking with the parent first, before making any decisions. This means that the parent will be making the final judgment rather than the child, which helps ensure their ultimate safety.
Teach Your Kids:
- They can always talk to you about any situation in which they feel unsafe. Make sure they know that this isn't tattling it is staying safe. It's okay to say no to an adult if he or she is making your child feel unsafe.
- Their own address, how to reach you, where to go for help if you are not home or they are not close to home, and how to dial 911.
- That if an adult forcibly grabs them, they should scream as loudly and fight as hard as they can.
- Some experts suggest telling kids to shout something that will make the current situation clear: "This isn't my Dad!"
Help your kids recognize potentially dangerous behavior and words, rather than asking them to make character judgments that even adults find difficult to make.
Incentive Lures: "I have some toys in my car that you can have."
Authority Lures: "Your mom couldn't come to pick you up so she asked me if I would."
Conversation Lures: In this case, the abductor may have somehow discovered the child's name (on their clothing or backpack), giving the child the impression that the adult knows her or him.
Assistance Lures: "I need help carrying these to my car—could you help me?"
Divorce Child Custody and Unique Circumstances
Under the common statutory provision, the parents of a child born within a marriage are joint guardians of that child and the rights of both parents are equal. This means that in case of separation, each parent has an equal right to custody of the child.
Decisions regarding child custody and other parenting arrangements can occur within several different legal contexts. These include parental divorce, guardianship, neglect, or abuse proceedings, and termination of parental rights.
Parental divorce requires a restructuring of parental rights and responsibilities. If the parents can agree to a restructuring arrangement, which they do in 90% of divorce custody cases, there is no need for legal intervention. However, if the parents are unable to reach an agreement, the court must help to determine the relative allocation of decision making authority and the physical contact each parent will have with the child. The courts typically apply a "best interest of the child" standard in determining this restructuring of rights and responsibilities.
