Child safety expert Elena Lizvinskaya shared 10 phrases that are important to say to any child before September 1. They are vital and important for the safety and comfort of every child.
1. The teacher is right, but not always
Respect the teacher's work and the knowledge that he gives. Remember that a teacher is a living person, he can also have a bad mood, well-being, his life situations. People are different, but it is in school that your common goal is knowledge. And your teacher is the first person you can turn to with a question and for help.
2. Grades are good
But no less important are your feelings, desires and interest in specific lessons and activities.
It is important for me that you would be interested and you can always contact me for an explanation.
3. Friends may not appear immediately
Look closely, communicate and you will definitely find your friend, or maybe not one, but several friends at once.

4. Your physiological needs are most important
Want to use the toilet? Warn the teacher and come out. Do not bear it!!! Don't expect a change when and if you really need to. But don't abuse the teacher's trust. Nobody has the right to do anything with you (inspect, carry out any manipulations) WITHOUT my consent!
It is very important(!)
5. Your things are always YOUR things
Only you decide when and with whom to share them. And whether to share at all. A briefcase, its contents, your accessories, mobile phone, clothes, changeable shoes - these are things. Yes, they cost money, but you are more important and EXPENSIVE to us. Your life and health are always MORE IMPORTANT. They are invaluable!!! Always more important than what is stolen, taken away by someone or lost.
6. Anything you are offered to drink or eat may not be safe for you.
Cause an unpredictable reaction in your body. Just keep this in mind when you take food or drinks from someone.
7. Children are all different
Try not to offend others on purpose. Do not let yourself be humiliated and do not let yourself be offended. Do not support situations where several children offend one weak person. I saw - share with me so I can help.
8. No one has the right to force you to do something that is unpleasant or unacceptable to you.
You can refuse regardless of whether it is a shared selfie or a joke on one of your classmates.
9. Threats are not acceptable!
"I'll take my phone / smart watch and won't give it back!"
"If you don't eat everything, you won't leave the table!"
"No form - no lesson!"
Situations are different - anything happens. "Any questions, please, to my mom." When something is wrong, let them report it to me.
Me personally or by phone. Not for you, child, but for me, your mother.
10. Know and remember that I am always on your side
I am your protection, I will always help you in any situation. You can tell about everything that is important to you at any time.
