Helps parents and caregivers teach their children vital safety skills that will help protect them.
After more than two decades as a family counselor, Julie Lowe has seen how important it is to help parents and caregivers think wisely and biblically about the dangers children face. Instead of living in fear or denial, parents and caregivers can equip children to assess people and situations and model for them how to live by faith in a world where evil exists.
Lowe helps parents and caregivers teach the safety skills that will help protect their children from mistreatment, unsafe situations, violence, bullying, cyber-crimes, predatory behaviour, sexting, abuse, and other kinds of danger that they might encounter.
The safety skills that are needed at every stage (preschool, elementary, teens, and college-age) are discussed and applied in an age-appropriate way.

I know of no other book that does what this one does. Here is practical help for every parent who is preparing their children to live with discernment in our sadly broken world. But what I love the most about this book is that its practical focus isn’t separated from the beauty and comfort of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Safeguards could not possibly be more practical. Every page is loaded with applied wisdom for keeping children safe. I constantly found myself saying ‘Our family needs to do this!’ Grounded in a call to trust the Lord rather than fear mongering, Safeguards equips both children and parents to discern evil and danger and to prepare wise, protective responses.
You don’t need to read the news headlines to know that our world isn’t always a safe place. Our kids may be threatened by their own bad choices or the behavior of others. Regardless of where the threats come from, your family can be better prepared with Julie Lowe’s practical advice.
