1. Give your child's school and day care provider a list of people whop are authorized to pick up your child. Instruct them to release your child only to you or a person on your list.
2. Teach your child what to do if they get lost. With an older child agree on a meeting place in case you are separated With a younger child, tell them to stay put or go to someone in authority. A police officer, life guard or fire fighter,
Show your child how to recognize a store clerk or security guard if they get lost in a store and teach them to say they are lost, can you help me find my mon or dad.
3. Choose a family code word to be used in only emergencies. If you must ask another adult to pick up your child tell that adult the family code word. Instruct your child not to go anywhere with an adult unless the adult can say the family code word.
4. Carry a current photo of your child in your wallet at all times . A small school picture works fine.
