@mamaaa9204: Parents, here are some safety lessons every child should know. Teach them that they never have to be polite to someone who is making them feel unsafe. Teach them that adults should not ask children for help. An adult asking a child to find a lost puppy, carry something, or help look for someone is a red flag. Make sure they know what to do if they get lost. Don’t wander around. Go into a store and find an employee, a police officer, or another safe adult. Teach them that secrets about touching, gifts, or meeting up with someone should always be told to a parent. If they have a phone, show them how to call 911 and how to share their location. Teach them to stay aware of their surroundings and avoid walking while distracted by a phone or headphones. Practice different scenarios with them. Ask: “What would you do if someone offered you a ride?” “What would you do if you got separated from me?” The goal isn’t to scare your children. It’s to prepare them for situations you hope they never face. A five-minute conversation today could protect them for years to come.
