CHILDREN DEFENDING THEMSELVES:


The best defense your child can have in an attempted abduction situation is to run.

If your son or daughter is eight years old, do you REALLY want them going toe-to-toe with a 250 lb. man aiming to toss your child into a vehicle? The last thing you want your child doing is trying to do any type of self defense technique that would force them to stay in close proximity to the abductor. It's one thing if your child is grabbed in a hold, such as a wrist grab, and delivers a kick to the knee of the attacker. It's another thing for your child to stand there and attempt to try and take the attacker out of commission with a roundhouse kick he or she learned in a karate class. This discourages your child from running away from the situation. The shear size and strength of the abductor makes sticking around a poor defense. Remember the first point in our THREE IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER.

- Run away from the attacker.

An adult, if they want to, can cover a distance of about 21 feet in one second. Just this fact alone should suggest that the greater distance a child can place between them and the abductor, the better off they will be.

Although it sounds obvious you must stress to them the run in the OPPOSITE direction of the attacker.
