Security Reminders and Tips for Parents Part I : At Home

As the world gets high-tech, crimes move-up alongside.  I was deeply bothered by the news on television and on broadsheets.  There is no safe place at all.  Home or outside, even inside your car.  Sometimes the villains are just watching around, finding the opportunity where your children are left alone and might saw you walked-by going somewhere. I have here some helpful reminders and techniques for safety at home while you are away:

Welcome the Self-defense and Security Gadgets

A teacher was raped and killed by a tricycle driver...student raped and left without any clothing inside the campus, mother and daughter died after being raped by a burglar, a college student abducted and gang-raped in a van, old woman raped and killed, young boy abducted and sex-slave by a homosexual whew! What else have I forgotten?! Baby, toddler, teener, mother, grandmother anybody can be a victim even boys watch out!  That is the topic of the daily newspaper here in the Philippines, never had any idea abroad.

Grieving for Death or for Debt? Notes about Insurance Plans

We sometimes get offended when somebody talks to us about life insurance. Are they nuts, are they implying we will  going to die so soon?! But looking at the wider perspective, Life Insurance are more of security for the living family not just for the departed.

Yes, of course there is the free casket and the burial expenses paid as well as some cash.  But looking at it deeply, how is it going to be if someone died all of a sudden, the victim's family is not stable enough to cover the expenses for everything.  Sure, a loved one will not allow the beloved family member just to be rolled in a mat and burried just in the backyard.  Even the piece of memorial "lot"  or a space in a piled-up"cemetery apartment" is not free nowadays.
