A message from Edinburgh Police Division
Quote:
CALLING ALL CHILDREN UNDER 10........
You know that moment when you are walking down the road just minding your own business being good. You pass a police officer and Daddy or Mummy says to you,
“Look out, behave or the Policeman will lock you away”
Well next time mummy or daddy do this you have authorisation from me to kick up a tantrum! Scream, shout and do your best to make a scene. Then turn to them and say
“The police are here to help, what do I do if I get lost or need help?”
Please remember mums, dads and carers, if you vilify police officers to the children in your charge simply for effect consider what are you doing to them.
Are they going to have the confidence in us later if they are offended against, groomed or abused? Are they going to come to us if they get lost in a busy town?
Are we really going to lock them away for walking down the road holding your hand? NO!
It saddens my colleagues and I when we hear this said to children. So as our friends in Chewin The Fat said.................'GONNAE NO DAE THAT!!!!!!!!'
