The issues of a person’s psychological resilience are of great practical importance, because resilience protects a person from disintegration and personality disorders, creates the basis for inner harmony, mental health and high work capacity. A person’s psychological resilience is an integral indicator that reflects the ability to overcome difficult moments in our life, suffering, trauma, tragedies or accidents. During emergency situations, children are especially susceptible to injury, illness, the danger of losing relatives and being alone, helpless in a large mass of people, and therefore need special attention and care. In these situations, children need special attention from relatives and parents, because at the same time they have the opportunity to express their feelings, impressions and experiences in a way that is acceptable for their age. This paper provides general guidance for parents and guardians on how to keep children safe in emergency situations. Children react in part to the condition they observe in the adults around them. When parents and caregivers face tragedy with calmness and confidence, they can best support their children.
