Giving the Gift of Personal Security
It’s that time of year when kids head back to school, and if you have a son or daughter going off to college for the first time, you may worry about his or her security on campus. It might not be possible to give the gift of absolute safety, but you can at least educate your children (and yourself!) on personal security.
I just read Street Smarts, Firearms, And Personal Security : Jim Grover’s Guide To Staying Alive And Avoiding Crime In The Real World 
If you are worried about your kids being off on their own, knowing they have read this book (and are putting the tactics into practice) should make you feel more comfortable. Of course, this isn’t the kind of gift that will excite them probably, but hey you can always tape it to a new iPod.
