The
world belongs to the children and we are only holding it in trust until
they are old enough to take possession. One way to accomplish our goal of
stopping crimes against children and ending child abuse is to arm kids
with safety tools based on the most current information and best knowledge
available on child safety issues. Although many adults say they will not
discuss safety issues because they do not want to frighten their children
it is really their own fears that most parents are afraid to face. Just as
they seek knowledge in the classroom, acquire athletic ability on the
playground and develop social skills with their friends and family,
children want the information that arms them with knowledge and allows
them to grow up to become safe and productive citizens.
The world is far too complex to depend on any single set of safety tips
or rules, therefore we have categorized several important and relevant
safety tips for you to share with your kids. Whether they are situational
or seasonal, all of the suggestions are pro-active and designed to
empower, not frighten your children.
I Am Focused Foundation’s mission is to increase awareness and help
stop crimes against children.
America’s continued evolution is predicated on the unspoken promise of
past generations that we will give our children a better world than was
given to us. As a country created around the concept of the individual,
the worth of the individual and the rights of the individual, our ability
to fulfill the promise to our children has allowed America to develop into
the most influential and powerful nation in world history. We have more
data, knowledge and information than has been compiled in all previous
generations combined and how we use it will help determine our fate as a
people.
The I Am Focused Foundation believes that we can go far toward
fulfilling our mission by distilling the best knowledge and information
through a societal approach that extends from the President’s Cabinet
Table to the family’s kitchen table. We can win the war for our children’s
future by acknowledging that crimes against children deserve a high
priority on our national and personal agenda’s. Then, by forming and
promoting partnerships with concerned citizens, the private sector,
organizations, law enforcement and legislators we take responsibility to
become part of the solution to fighting crime and we can take pride in
pro-active accomplishments.
