Missing Children South Africa
has revealed that a child goes missing every five hours in South Africa. Globally,
statistics also show that child trafficking is on the increase. Simon Colman of
SHA Specialist Underwriters says in light of these alarming figures, parents
are urged to keep a watchful eye over their children during the festive season.
Colman explains why there’s a risk of human trafficking increasing during
festive season.
“Talking
to kids about the dangers of talking to strangers it’s become quite cliché”,
said Simon Colman.
“But it
doesn’t make it any less important and explaining simple things, generally an adult
is not going to stop a child and ask for directions or for help somewhere when
there are other adults around”, He explained.
“So
they should be suspicious of these things and we always telling our children to
keep quiet, but we should also make it clear that there are times when they
should be making a noise”, added Colman.
“If
they feeling uncomfortable with something they shouldn’t feel they can’t shout
or scream or cry to attract attraction”, He said.
