I was watching the news when I came home from work, I become bothered since I noticed that there is a lot of news related to missing children. According to the news, 800,000 missing children are reported every year.
As a mother myself, I can’t help but be concerned for the safely of my daughter. My husband and I are both working and every time we have to go to work, we always leave our daughter under the care of our nanny. We are lucky because my mom and my dad lives just near our house and since both of them are no longer working, they can check on their grand daughter everyday. This gives us a little peace of mind since we know that my parents can always check on the safety of my daughter.
But even if this is the case, child safety can still be an area of concern for us as there are a lot of factors to take in consideration to be sure that our daughter will be safe. Yes, she is safe when she is inside our house, but will she still be 100% safe if we're in a mall, a restaurant or in other crowded places?
I remember there was some recent news about a missing child. The kid was last seen with his father in a department store and she got lost or maybe kidnapped while they were inside the department store. Too bad, the law enforcers were not able to successfully locate the kid while she was still alive. I realized if only the kid has a child id or child locator, this might have helped the law enforcers in finding her in the first two to three hours that she was reported missing.
Hearing all this news makes me feel really paranoid about the safety of my daughter. It is always a rule in our family that every time we are out, we should not let the nanny be the only one to take care of her. Either I or my husband should be the one to watch over our daughter and the nanny will just be there to assist us. Also the first thing that we have to do as soon as we enter our car is to lock the doors. Another reminder from my father and my husband is that we should never get out of the car if we get plugged down by a law enforcer and instead we should just open our car windows if they wish to speak to us.
As a mother, this list of reminders and precautions will never end as I have a long list of what to do to ensure the safety of our precious daughter. But I guess this is just typical for all parents, since all of us want nothing but all the best for our precious kids.
