How Can Parents and Guardians Protect Their Children?
Parents and guardians play a crucial role in protecting their children from the dangers of tanning beds. Here are some steps they can take:
Educate children about the risks of UV radiation and the importance of sun protection. Encourage the use of sunscreens with a high SPF, wearing protective clothing, and seeking shade during peak sun hours. Discourage the use of tanning beds and promote safer alternatives for achieving a tan. Set a good example by practicing sun-safe behaviors and avoiding tanning beds themselves.
