Download or read book How to Keep Your Children Safe written by Yvonne Marie Vissing and published by UPNE. This book was released on 2006 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the New England Sociological Association Sociologist of the Year (2008) Life in contemporary American society requires that children spend considerable time in the care of "other people." These people include teachers, coaches, babysitters, camp counselors, ministers, neighbors, friends, and extended family. While most people who work with children do a good job, some caregivers fail to adequately care for kids, while others actually put them in harm's way. Parents may assume that caregivers of all kinds are uniformly evaluated and "approved," but this is not always the case. American society, despite a superficial rhetoric of concern for children, has not instituted strong national, state, or local safety nets to protect them. And because there is no comprehensive commitment to ensure child safety, there is no systematic, or even partial, oversight of adults charged with their care. As a result, parents are put in the difficult position of deciding whether caregivers of all kinds are sufficiently skilled and responsible to look after children. How to Keep Your Children Safe is essential reading for any parent concerned about child safety. It takes a hard look at the hidden side of children's lives--the times when they're in contact with caregivers who aren't doing their jobs properly. It provides detailed information on places where children are under the care of others, including day care, recreational settings, religious and civic organizations, schools, and summer camps.Vissing investigates the potential perils of each setting and enumerates ways in which parents can better monitor, or take control of, their child's safety. By writing a realistic assessment of commonplace settings that every parent and child can relate to, and offering a road map to child safety,Vissing empowers parents to make critical decisions about their children's lives.

Download or read book The Child Safety Guide for New and Expecting Parents written by Christian J. Bezick and published by Safekids Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may not be aware of it, but being a young child can be dangerous. Children under the age of five ? babies, toddlers and preschoolers ? are injured and treated in hospital emergency rooms almost twice as frequently as the U.S. population five and older (on a per capita basis). Each year, approximately 1 in 11 children under age five are treated in hospital emergency rooms for injures. And for every 2 young children treated in the ER, 3 are treated in doctors' offices and clinics.Although there are many ways in which a young child can get injured, in the overwhelming majority of cases, there is one common and consistent element ? a parent or caregiver did not recognize the danger involved. Child safety is different from many other aspects of parenting. The way a young child interacts with his environment ? the home, furniture and fixtures, baby products ? must be fully understood in order to make his environment safe.Fortunately, most injuries are easily preventable when parents learn the child safety basics and become aware of the many subtle and unforeseen dangers facing their children. The Child Safety Guide for New and Expecting Parents enables parents and caregivers to learn about these important and critical elements essential for providing a safe environment for their children. Topics covered include childproofing, car seat selection, use and installation, child products, product recalls and hazards ? water, choking, window, poison ? which face our children daily. The content was selected to provide the most important information available to keep young children safe and focuses on safety issues for children from 0 to 5 years of age. The bookwas designed and organized for the sleep deprived and over-worked parent. We have useda larger than normal type face to go easy on the eyes (sleep deprived eyes) and have includedmany illustrations to visually portray safety concepts.

What they fail to understand is that any information they reveal may be used to steal their identity, prevent them from being hired and possibly even get them hurt or killed. It is well known that college is a time for learning, experiencing and growing as a person...but it is little understood that it is also the point in time when students form relationships, political beliefs, attitudes, and habits that will shape them for the rest of their lives. The influence of their friends, teachers and the social and political climate on campus are huge factors in their development - both good and bad. Understanding and learning can help parents assist their sons and daughters avoid future pitfalls and grow up to be successful, productive members of society. There is nothing more important than your personal safety and the safety of your family. Safety has become the highest priority for students, parents, educators and administrators. However, the educational tools and reference guides that contain this essential information for them is lacking since most safety material focuses on the school itself and public safety professionals, not the individual. Today's college students face threats to their personal safety that generations before did not have to deal with. New problems exist in both the digital world and the physical world, and can be harmful or even deadly. Thinking a problem won't happen to you will not make it any less likely.

You can give your child the most comprehensive resource ever compiled about how to stay safe in both the physical world and digital world. This will help ensure that students are made aware of the various threats to their personal safety that exist both online and offline so they will ultimately be safer during their college years and beyond.
