People Safety skills help children, teens, and adults get the very best out of their interactions with other people while staying safe, acting wisely, and getting help when they need it. People Safety skills include, among other things, advocacy, boundary setting, stranger safety, conflict resolution, and skills for dealing with bullying. The People Safety Podcast draws on KIDPOWER International's 20 years of experience teaching People Safety skills to children, teens, and adults to provide parents, educators, and caregivers with accessible, enjoyable, and thought-provoking commentary created to get you thinking, talking, practicing, and -- we hope -- thoroughly enjoying People Safety skills in your everyday lives. en © 2008 All rights reserved.

How do you decide when to use your earphones? Adults get to choose for themselves, and children get to choose within the boundaries their adults give. The truth is, wearing earphones can interfere with awareness, so Thinking First about where you are, what you are doing, and what possible problems might come up helps you figure out the best choice for you in different situations. http://www.kidpower.org http://www.kidpower.org/MEDIA/podcast-extras/Earphones%20and%20Awareness.mov Tue, 12 Aug 2008 12:18:25 -0700 Kids & Family, Education, Podcasting clean 00:03:34 people, safety, kidpower, kids, personal, self-defense Kidpower International Many people enjoy sneaking up on others and surprising them. Usually, they do this to have fun, but a lot of the time it starts problems instead. Many kids, teens, and adults enjoy sneaking up on others and surprising them, maybe by jumping out from behind a door or by creeping up behind a friend or a family member very quietly. Usually, they do this to have fun, but a lot of the time it starts problems instead. In fact, when the person who was surprised acts grumpy or irritated, the person who did the surprising often says something like, "I'm just having fun!" or "Can't you take a joke?!" Lots of common relationship challenge can follow: people might stomp away and sulk, or they might escalate the situation by hitting, or they might decide to "get the other person back" with even more scary energy. When friends and family avoid communicating about this very basic kind of problem, they often end up choosing to avoid each other or worrying -- instead of relaxing and having a good time -- when they are together. http://www.kidpower.org http://www.kidpower.org/MEDIA/podcast-extras/Think%20Before%20Sneaking%20Up-1.mov Tue, 12 Aug 2008 12:18:04 -0700 Kids & Family, Education, Podcasting clean 00:03:57 people, safety, kidpower, kids, personal, self-defense Kidpower International People Safety skills are everyday tools for building and strengthening relationships at home, at school, on the job, and in your community.  They’re also the tools you use to be safe in difficult or potentially dangerous situations with other people. If your life brings you in contact with other people, then you deserve People Safety skills for getting the most out of every interaction you have.  It's true that People Safety skills are powerful tools for preventing, avoiding, de-escalating, and escaping from situations that have the potential to be truly dangerous, but they also happen to be the most powerful relationship-building skills you and those you love could have.   In fact, using your People Safety skills every day is like staying in shape for a big event.  When you practice using your People Safety skills on an everyday basis, you are doing good things for yourself and those you care about -- improving understanding and communication, advocating for yourselves and others, setting boundaries so your time together goes more smoothly.   At the same time, you are practicing and strengthening your ability to be aware, take charge, and get help in all kinds of ways. If you end up needing the skills to be safe in a much more serious situation -- a 'big event' -- those familiar skills are likely to be right there in your confident reach, ready to keep you safe! People Safety skills are the tools for building safety, but they are also the tools for building the life and relationships you want with other people.  No matter where you live, how old you are, or what your strengths and abilities might be, you deserve a strong set of People Safety skills and the confidence to use them to make your life safer and more enjoyable.   All of us at KIDPOWER, an international nonprofit organization with twenty years of People Safety education experience, are proud and happy to share these skills with you! http://www.kidpower.org http://www.kidpower.org/MEDIA/podcast-extras/What%20Is%20People%20Safety%3F.mov Thu, 03 Jul 2008 12:10:08 -0700 Kids & Family, Education, Podcasting clean 00:05:49 KIDPOWER, People, Safety
