Child Survival Skills: How to Detect and Avoid Dangerous People (Paperback)
by Jerry Hyde, Terra Hulse, Sandra Kowallis (Illustrator)

Written by two expert self-defense instructors, Child Survival Skills is a solid teaching manual especially for parents concerning how to teach children to protect themselves from dangerous people and predators. From teaching young people to yell, dodge, run, or go to a low-risk adult when a potentially dangerous person tries to grab them, to "red flags" that all children need to be aware of and immediately report (such as when a person stares at them for too long, or attempts to touch any part of the body covered by a bathing suit, or tries to enlist their help to find something lost), Child Survival Skills walks one through the basics of explaining, training, and reinforcing self-protective behaviors in the very young. Child Survival Skills is not a martial arts instructional; it focuses primarily on learning how to teach one's very young children to recognize "unsafe people" (who are often not strangers!), and what to do in case of a bad situation.
