There are things that you should do and things that one should not do when one decide to go out alone for a night out. Â One of the things you should do is always know how you are going to get back home safely, and one you certainly should not do is accept a ride from a stranger.Â
According to a media report, a 26-year-old young woman decided to go out alone and not to make the right arrangement to get back home she accepted a ride from a stranger. Instead of taking her home as promised he took her somewhere else where he sexually assaulted her before dropping her off at her apartment.
I am a mother of four, and there are two girls, and I hope that I have taught them how to protect themselves when they go out. Â Although no one should be subject to assault, there are times when we are our worse enemy. Â Why would you put yourself in a position of not knowing how you are getting home? Â And why would you accept a ride from someone that you do not know?
There are no circumstances in which I would get into a car with someone; that I do not know. Â There are many ways in which we can protect ourselves if we use a bit of commonsense. Â You should carefully plan your night out, ensure that you book a taxi well in advance unless you arrange for someone to pick you up. Â Do not leave things for the last minute as you might find yourself in difficult. Â
Do not abuse alcohol in that you get drunk you cannot take care of yourself. Â The onus is on us to make it difficult for individuals to commit crimes against us and if we just stop and think for a minute then that incident against the young woman would never have happened
