Advice for children about family safety

Many families are protected with a home security system from SIS – Security & Investigation Services. However, the equipment will only provide alerts about the intruders who have broken into your home. Homeowners must assume a responsibility for not attracting thieves and for informing children about the dangers from burglary. Children may want playmates to come to their house to play games or climb trees. But remember that friends are a source of risks because children may not know about methods for concealing information about personal possessions.


> Confidentiality
Children may choose to make themselves more popular by talking about the new electronics their father bought or the valuable jewelry their mother wears. The information about personal possessions should be protected because thieves will cruise through neighbourhoods and look for open windows and doors such as patio and garage doors. The thieves may enter through an open garage door and steal tools from a work bench or an unlocked vehicle.

> Electronic Devices
A burglar will break a window and enter a home to steal video games, TVs, computers and music systems. Because of this children should always be advised about not speaking to anyone about any expensive or new electronic devices in their home. All information about new purchases should be protected because a thief could easily enter a home and steal something.

> Weapons and Jewelry
Thieves can easily sell stolen weapons, jewelry, antiques and family heirlooms – all these cannot be replaced! Therefore, parents should protect themselves and their children by speaking with their children about the potential threats from strangers. Family members may be frightened after a burglary, but you will all have protection with a home security system from SIS – Security & Investigation Services.
