A friend of mine is a bit worried about security reasons as times have really bad especially for a girl who travels alone. Her daughter travels to college sometimes in rickshaw or cabs with a college friend who lives nearby her area. This friend is a boy and very chivalrous. He ensures that he drops my friends daughter to her home first and then goes home. But my friend worries that something shouldn't go wrong in their daily commute. The horrors we daily face of molestation, rape, robbery and murders are scaring her to the point of putting a lot of restrictions on her daughter. What tips can she give to her kid for helping her remain guarded?

the first step is to make the child self-dependent and learn a form of defense sport, such as karate or martial arts. other than that, teach your child basics of safety such as how to avoid being with strangers, keeping certain numbers on speed dial, installing panic alarm on phone, carrying a pepper spray or something that can be used as a defense thing in case of an emergency and so on.
