CHILD SAFETY

COMBATIVES / CHILD SAFETY 

Protect children.

Child safety begins before physical contact. Abduction attempts, grooming, sexual exploitation, coercion and human trafficking can begin with access, trust, manipulation, secrecy or online communication.

COMBATIVES CHILD SAFETY focuses on awareness, prevention, recognition and response for children, families, schools and institutions.

PREVENTION 

The objective is not fear. It is recognition.

Children should understand simple actions that can reduce exposure to dangerous situations without creating paranoia or false confidence.

Recognize Identify unsafe contact and suspicious behavior. 
Distance Move away before physical control becomes possible. 
Escape Reach people, public areas and trusted adults. 
Report Dangerous contact and abuse should never remain secret. 

THE THREATS 

Not every threat looks dangerous at first.

Abduction 

Suspicious approaches, vehicles, false requests for help and attempts to move a child away from a safe environment.

Online Grooming 

Building trust online, creating secrecy and gradually progressing toward sexual requests, coercion or meetings.

Sexual Exploitation 

Abuse, manipulation, blackmail, image-based coercion and sexual exploitation of children and adolescents.

Human Trafficking 

Recruitment, movement or control of people for exploitation through deception, coercion or abuse of vulnerability.

REPORT 

See something. Report it.

Immediate danger requires immediate action. Suspected abuse, exploitation or suspicious online material should be directed to official authorities and specialized reporting organizations.
