Self Defense Tip of the Day
Parents Teach your TEENS:
Flight or fight- In the animal kingdom there are two basic reactions to a perceived threat to one’s safety. People like animals have the option to either fight or flee an attacker. Fighting off an attacker should be the last resort for teens and adults alike. In most cases the victim is caught unaware, while the attacker has the advantage of surprise, motive and adrenaline. Whenever possible it is best to run away (making as much noise as possible) in search of safety. This is not always possible, but in situations where escape is possible, it is the best option.
Self Defense Tip of the Day
Ask for identification of all service personnel before opening the door. If you have not requested service, ask for the office phone number and name of dispatcher.

There are companies that send you emails with a picture of the persons coming to service your home.
