Jesus Said, But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea (Matthew 18:6).
Jesus loves the little children of the world.

Educating Adults
How To Properly Approach A Child.

We teach our children to never talk to strangers and if a stranger does approach our kids while they are playing in the yard, invading their safety zone. They are taught to run into the house as fast as they can to come find mom or dad yelling stranger.
However, it is also very important to teach adults how to approach a child safely without giving the child the impression you pose a threat or wish to do the child harm. Most importantly without invading the child's Safety Zone.
Most adults when they approach a strange child will at least try to be friendly and may even say something cheerful or positive to the child to show a friendly gesture. Although, if an adult casually walks into a yard where a child is playing and even though your intentions may be harmless. If the child does not run away because you seem to be friendly. The next friendly stranger that comes along may be that stranger that does mean the child harm but because the child has met other friendly strangers. The child has no reason to be aware of the danger that is approaching. When you approach a child and interact with the child as a “friendly stranger”. You are teaching that child to trust strangers, which could cost that child’s life. That certainly does not mean to say you should scorn or ignore every child you meet but there are proper ways of approaching a child in a friendly way without invading the child’s safety zone.
As we teach our children to never allow a stranger to approach them without running away, not even to get close enough to start a conversation. It is also important that we teach adults to never approach a strange child who is playing in the security of their own yard, their safety zone. Because it defeats the purpose of what that child has been taught about trusting friendly strangers.

Here is what to do if you happen upon a child that is playing in a yard where you are visiting.
1. If you are walking down the street and there is a child playing in the yard at the house where you are visiting,
DO NOT go into the yard but make your presence known to the child staying at least 30 feet away as not to pose a threat to the child. Tell the child to go into the house and get his or her mom or dad in order to come out to where you are. After the child has gone into the house you may step inside the yard but keeping a safe distance until mom or dad comes out to greet you and to invite you in.
2. If you are driving down the road in your car and you pull into a driveway where a child is playing in the yard,
DO NOT get out of the car. Roll down your window and tell the child to go into the house in order to get mom or dad to come out to where you are. After mom or dad comes out to greet you, then you may get out of the car and be invited in.
These rules apply when a child is playing in the yard and you are a stranger and the child does not know who you are.
If every adult practiced these rules when approaching a strange child. It would help children to know when a real threat is approaching from a stranger who is breaking the rules of engagement invading the child’s safety zone to do the child harm.
Children are smart enough to know the difference when they are taught how to recognize the correct procedures of a stranger approaching and when it is necessary for them to run and get help if a stranger does get to close.
It is the responsibility of all adults to follow the safety rules of child / adult engagement in order to keep our kids safe from predator strangers.

Drunk Driving Bill Proposed.
Fatal crashes occurring from midnight to 3:00 AM, 77 percent involved alcohol in 2003. The next most dangerous time period for alcohol-related crash deaths were 9 PM to midnight (64 percent of fatal crashes involved alcohol), followed by 3 AM to 6 AM (60 percent of fatal crashes involved alcohol). (NHTSA, 2004)
According to these statistics concerning drinking and driving, the road at night between 9PM and 6AM belongs to drunk drivers. The majority of these drivers are drunk after leaving a bar or nightclub.

Speeding Through A Residential Neighborhood. In most residential neighborhoods the speed limit is usually 30 to 35 miles per hour but if you are driving down a street where kids are playing. Or, if you see a child standing on the side of the road about to cross the street. Regardless of what the legal speed limit is, slow your car down to 10 or 15 miles per hour until you pass the child safely. Being just a child, he or she without thinking may run out in front of your car and even at 30 miles per hour you can kill a child even if you do manage to hit the brakes.
If the child looks to be under the age of 4 you can be sure your chances of the child running out in front of your car is a 50/50 chance. Slow down when you see a child near the street. If you kill a child with your car because you were not paying attention or going to fast. It will devastate and haunt you for the rest of your life. Children are not responsible but adults are; or they should be.

The Word Of The Month Is Accumulate

Safe Guard
Kids Safety On School Buses. Is your child safe riding the school bus back and forth to school each day? If you check the statistics and news reports you may have cause to be concerned. Every day in the United States there are over 144 school bus accidents (26,000 per year).
Over 9,500 children are seriously injured in school bus accidents each year and most all school buses do not have any type of restraining device or seat belt to keep kids from being thrown out or tossed around if the bus is involved in an accident. School buses should have seat belts in order to protect kids in case of a roll over or from being injured in a serious accident. The use of seat belts would also help to eliminate the hundreds of fights and assaults that occur on school buses each year. Help us keep our kids safe riding the bus to school and home again. Tell your school principal and school superintendent you want our school buses brought up to date with safe seats that include seat belts. No cost is too much when it saves a child's life, our number one goal. Click on the school bus above or the link below to watch a video of kids riding a school bus without seat belts. You may be surprised just how dangerous it can be.
