As human beings, being safe is one of our top priorities. In fact, some “wealthy” people take extra steps and hire personal bodyguards. Unfortunately, we can’t all afford to hire someone to always take care of us, so we have to find a better way.

Here are some ideas for the ‘best way’.

A complete security system is a great way to protect your home. But what happens when you leave your home? Who will be taking care of you? Unless you live in a dangerous neighborhood, too many people think they are safe and nothing can happen to them. But what if something happens? What happens if someone approaches them to harm them?

Most people will immediately call 911. It’s a good idea, but you won’t get an immediate response, and the baddie could do whatever he wants with you and be away a long time before the police arrive. No, in addition to 911, you need help now; you need a personal alarm.

Personal alarms are a great device for personal safety. They are small, inexpensive, and very noisy when started. These alarms come in different sizes, shapes, and even colors. Some even come disguised as lipstick. Who would have thought!

Just pull a pin or press a button and 100-130 db of very annoying sound that should scare any attacker. And as a bonus, the sound will fill the air and attract the immediate attention of anyone around you who will hopefully give you some help. Also, today everyone has a cell phone and will take photos of everything, so the last thing the attacker wants is to have their photo shown to the police.

Here are some other uses for the personal alarm:

If someone is injured and requires immediate help. With you yelling “find a doctor” and the alarm ringing for attention, help will soon be on the way.

Find your child if he slips in a crown. Teach the child to use the alarm and he will find it very quickly when the alarm goes off.

Most of us love to go hiking or jogging sometimes and we both know that these activities can lead to deserted places, so it would be reasonable for one to carry their personal alarm with them.

· If you are in a motel or hotel, there is a possibility that your valuables will be stolen or attacked. Your personal alarm will come in handy in case you have an unexpected encounter with a thief.

· And what about being in college? Or walk to your car in a dark parking lot?

Don’t be the victim of a crime! Always carry a personal alarm with you at all times. Teach your kids how and when to use them. You might be sorry if you don’t.
