After 20 years of chasing street thugs I retired from the Phoenix Police Department.

For the next 10 years I continued chasing criminals and fraudsters all over the country as a private and corporate investigator.

During my detective assignment as an undercover surveillance operator, I learned how serial criminals and predators targeted good, honest, and unsuspecting citizens. I learned this by conducting covert surveillance on them and interviewing them after they were arrested. I learned how and why these street thugs selected their victims. I want to share this invaluable information with you and your family. Of course when I tell kids stories of my street experiences, I am careful to do it in a way that doesn't create fear in their minds.

I have made it my life's mission to help families learn the necessary skills and tactics that can keep them safe.

Being a concerned parent myself, and having taught my own children how to be safe from the dangers of substance abuse and crime, I would like the opportunity to teach you and your kids these same tactics.

For example...

Perhaps you don't think your kids need to know these secrets, techniques, and skills...

Really?? I know that's not you...but if it is...

Then you haven't paid attention to how our world has been turned upside down...

And how confused the kids in our society are becoming.

Or maybe you just don't know how or where to begin to arm your kids with life-skills for survival when they are away...

As the parents of a bunch of kiddos, my wife Mary and I made the decision to stop worrying about our children's safety long ago.

I encourage you to do the same.

Worry serves no purpose except to weaken your children by sending them the silent message that you don't trust them and they can't take care of yourself. This is manifested in your wording, and most parents are unaware of how damaging it is to their kids.

It's true you can't be with your kids all the time, nor should you. Yet, Kids require coaching to have instilled within them a sense of personal power, courage, and accountability.

I want your children to have what most of us didn't have growing up, convincing personal power!

Look around and you can see how a lack of courage has contributed to the precarious situation we find our world in today.

Adults and children alike are often scared to make a stand for what they believe in. They are often intimidated by the Woke culture that although being the minority group in our society, makes the most noise.

So, I want your child to have at their command the same powerful tools I developed as a police officer:

With this power, your kids will develop the skills to immediately move to safety when you aren't there to protect them.

They will be able to send a powerful message to bullies and predators that they aren't a victim.

Even if your kids don't have any known enemies or valuables that you think others might want to take from them, they can still find themselves in hundreds of situations where my proven methods and techniques can save them.

For instance...

Two teenage girls I know of, Amanda and Sidney were hanging out in a fast food restaurant parking lot late at night. This was a small town, literally a single traffic light, and this was the local teenage hangout.

Violent crime was rare in this town and most residents felt safe and secure. The type of town where houses aren't locked up, and vehicles had their keys left inside them.

While the girls were talking and eating pizza in their car, a serial predator snuck through the shadows up to the car and pointed a hand gun through the driver window. He was wearing a COVID style face mask and one of the girls told me all she could focus on was his sinister eyes that spewed evil!

He reached in through the partially open driver door window and unlocked the doors. He then got in the back seat and at gunpoint ordered the girls to drive from the parking lot. Both girls were frozen in their seats. Sidney the driver began hyperventilating.

Amanda the passenger had her phone in her hand and couldn't even remember how to dial 911. She was only able to send out a senseless message to a friend that said "call T."

The suspect saw Amanda holding her phone and saw the screen was lit up. He demanded her phone and put the gun to her cheek. Amanda thrust the phone down between her legs near the floor as the suspect reached over her and tried grabbing it.

She clung to the phone as the suspect began trying to wrestle the phone away from her.

Amanda suddenly recalled a message her dad had repeatedly drilled into her head...that she should NEVER leave a location with a suspect.

She also remembered that a suspect isn't usually expecting the victim to attack.

She made the decision she wasn't going anywhere and she was going to fight!

She struck the assailant in the head with her left elbow and started screaming for the suspect to get out of the car.

Sidney, the driver, meanwhile opened her door and fled from the vehicle.

Amanda then opened her door and fled from the vehicle.

Both girls went in different directions and never looked back. Both thought the other was being chased.

Amanda was finally able to get her wits and called 911.

Unbeknownst to the girls, the suspect was apprehended shortly after the attempted abduction. He was identified as a violent repeat offender and only sentenced to one-and-a half years for the attempted abduction.

The criminal justice system isn't so much about justice anymore...

Both girls survived what could have been a tragic assault or worse...

They survived because they took action.

I recently talked with Amanda about the encounter. She said she would often tune out her dad's safety warnings because she never imagined she would become the target of a violent predator in a small town.

Nevertheless, she heard the message at some level and although she froze when the crisis hit, she got her wits and went on the offense to save her life.

The time to prepare for a crisis is NOW. Not while it is happening. It is too late then.

The body will not go where the mind has not!

Your children must learn how to control themselves before they can control a crisis.

In the personal protection realm that I am immersed in it is a fact that the software (mind) is more important than the hardware (weapons or techniques) when it comes to surviving a crisis.

It is true...the human brain is your most powerful weapons, yet it has to be conditioned and trained to respond to a crisis.
