ADVICE FOR PARENTS AS NEW SCHOOL YEAR BEGINS
With August reaching its midpoint, the beginning of the new school
year can't be far behind. It's always a good idea at this time of
year for parents to remind their children of basic safety tips for
traveling to and from school. This all sounds simple enough, but -
sadly - many young lives could be saved with just a brief
conversation between parent and child. Specifically, children
should be reminded to:
(1) NEVER play in the middle of the freeway - stay on the shoulder whenever possible.
(2) If you're pointing your handgun at a friend's head, make sure it isn't loaded. Alternatively, load it with blanks - it sounds just as cool.
(3) Don't accept rides or gifts from strangers. Sure, the guy in the photo above looks harmless enough, but he could be some kind of weirdo pervert for all you know.
