No matter where you live or how nice your neighborhood may be, parents should occasionally review with their children the dos and don’ts of dealing with strangers. Caution your children to avoid strangers, never to accept money, candy or other gifts from them, and never to accept a ride from a stranger. Instruct your children to tell you as quickly as possible if a stranger should approach them in these ways. Your children should know these basic rules for their own protection.
