Responsibility of Your Child Lies with You

23 December 2009
All parents, please be aware that your kid(s) is your responsibility and therefore have the right to be protected and to feel safe says Adv. Max, Minister of Community Safety.

Max urge all parents to be well informed about the children's whereabouts after the disappearance of Faika and Rukia Cupido from Seawinds yesterday. The two was found unharmed at the house of a family member.

Max reiterates that any parents who found themselves guilty of child negligence will be charged in the court of law.

When your child goes missing immediately report the child to your nearest police station, who will then activate the necessary resource to start the search.

Children should be taught the "buddy system" to always play and walk with friends in order to "ARRIVE SAFELY HOME".
