Stranger Awareness and Internet Safety for School-Age Children

Many experts now agree that rather than telling children not to talk to strangers, it is important to teach them to develop good judgment about strangers. If your school-age child becomes separated from you, he or she may need to seek the help of a stranger.

Parents and caregivers should point out people who a child could go to for help in a store or other public place (e.g., uniformed employee, security personnel, police officer, or mom with children). The important part of dealing with strangers is that children should understand that they should not speak to strangers who approach them.
