If You Want Your Children Safe

If you truly love your child, If you want your children safe, Tell them these two things: 1. Adults do not share secrets with children. and if they do, you want your child to YELL AND SCREAM and KICK them and RUN AWAY. 2. If someone grabs you, LIE DOWN, on the GROUND, hard. If they try to pick you up kick and claw and scream and shout, scratch their neck their face, and their eyes out. If you truly want your children safe.

what good advice. I fear that most children, however, can ultimately be tricked by these fiends.

I know, Andrea, it is SO sad, but children LOVE people.

I teach my grandchildren this, and my children at school. Children are hard to abduct after they know me.

It's so sad that it is necessary to tell children these things-very strong words of wisdom, Caren.
