In today’s era, the safety of girls is the biggest concern for parents. Whether school or any public place, parents always want their baby girl to be safe and happy. Therefore, the first step to protect them from external threats is to teach them to protect themselves. For this you do not have to depend on external security measures. It is very important to empower girls so that they can recognize any wrong situation and save themselves from it. In this article, we will tell you 5 important things, which you must teach your baby girl, so that no one can misbehave with her.

Explain the difference between good touch and bad touch

This is the most basic and important thing that every child should know. Tell them that some parts of the body are private, which no one can touch other than a doctor or parents, that is also very important only when it is very important. Explain that if someone touches them in such a way that they feel strange, uncomfortable or bad, then it is a ‘bad touch’. Tell them that if someone touches them wrongly or makes them feel uncomfortable, they should immediately leave from that place and say ‘no’ loudly. Teach them to immediately talk about any such incident from you or a trusted adult, whether a family member or an outsider. Make them believe that you will always listen to them and believe them.

Teach daughter to call ‘no’

It is very important for children to decide their limits and teach them to say ‘no’. Explain them that if someone asks them to do something that they do not like, or by whom they feel uncomfortable, they have the right to say ‘no’. Also teach that if no one listens to them and forces them, they should scream, shout or run away. Tell them that their feelings are important and they should always rely on their intuition. If they do not like any person or situation, they should stay away from him.

Teach them not to talk to strangers and do not take anything from them

This is a classic but always relevant advice. Tell your child that they should not talk to any stranger, especially if they are alone. Teach them that if a stranger tries to give them candy, toy or something else, do not take it at all. Explain to them that if a stranger comes to them on the pretext of giving them a lift or asking the way, they should immediately move away and call someone big for help. Also explain to them the definition of ‘stranger’, who can be anyone that they do not know, even if they seem sociable.

Explain who should ask for help in emergency

It is important for children to know where they should ever go if they are in danger or they need help. Teach them to identify some safe places, such as policemen, security guards, shopkeepers, or parents with children. Remind them of their full name, parents’ name and phone number. Tell them that if they are lost or feel insecure, how to ask for help from these safe people. Teach them to dial emergency numbers like 100 or 112 on the phone, even if they do not know the phone yet.

Teach security rules on internet and social media

Nowadays, children start using internet and social media at an early age, which creates new threats. Teach them not to talk to strangers online and do not share any personal information like their address, school name, phone number with anyone. Tell them that they do not send their photos or videos to anyone, especially if someone pressures them to do so. Tell them about cyberbuling and teach them that if something like this happens to them, they should immediately tell you. Also explain to them that what they see online is not always true, and do not trust anyone’s eyes.
