Establish correct safety awareness and concept
Parents should instill a correct concept of safety in their children when they are very young, so that children can understand that they should be vigilant in some cases and not trust strangers easily.
Understand the surrounding environment
Parents should teach their children how to observe the surrounding environment and avoid potential dangers.
Learn self-defense
If possible, parents can teach girls some basic self-defense skills, such as how to escape and how to defend against attacks.
Provide necessary safety tools.
For example, a girl can be provided with a whistle to sound for help in case of danger.
Firmly refuse benefits or gifts
Parents should make girls understand that never accept benefits or gifts from strangers, because it may be a scam, and strangers may cheat girls' trust in this way.
Discuss sensitive topics
Parents should communicate with girls to let them know what sexual assault is and how to prevent it.
Give girls enough freedom and space.
Parents should let go moderately, so that girls have proper freedom and space to explore the world, but they should also give timely help and guidance to girls when they encounter problems.
Building trust and communication channels
Parents should establish channels of trust and communication with girls, so that girls can ask their parents for help if they have problems, and at the same time, they should respect their privacy.
Provide necessary guardianship
If necessary, parents can provide appropriate supervision, such as accompanying girls out or providing safe transportation.
