Question

Keeping in mind the volatile situation in our country and the fact that most issues like rapes, molestation, robbery, getting beaten up, pushed around etc happen mostly because people are ignorant, gullible and unprepared.... shouldnt there be more training institutes that teach basic know how of criminal mindset and some steps and guidance on how to take care of ourselves? There are classes that teach everything under the sun, but this I still have yet to see. These should be taken up in societies and communities...instd of just relying on a few security guards, shouldn't there also be something the whole neighborhood can do? What's the suggestion all can give here?

definitely yes, but i guess the first step is to prepare ourselves and our kids to be able to handle such situations.one great way of doing this is to enroll in combat sports, that teach you how to defend yourself when caught in an attack mode. if not, the basic classes such as karate and any form of martial arts is a good example. in addition, we need to keep our kids informed about safe practices, as well as keep our residential areas safe through gadgets such as CCTV surveillance, as well as trusted security guards and vigilant residents.
