A stranger offers you candy and asks you to come with them. What should you do?
ATake the candy because it is rude to say no
BSay 'No!', get away, and tell a trusted adult right away
CGo with them if they seem nice
DTake the candy but do not go with them
Never go with a stranger, no matter what they offer you or how nice they seem. Say 'No!' loudly, move away quickly, and tell a trusted adult (parent, teacher, or another safe grown-up) right away. Strangers who try to get children to go with them by offering treats are using a trick, and you do not have to be polite in a dangerous situation.
Question 2 True / False
You can typically tell if a stranger is dangerous by how they look.
TTrue
FFalse
Answer: False
Dangerous people do not look different from safe people. They can look friendly, dress normally, and act nice. That is why the rules about strangers apply to everyone you do not know — not just people who look scary. You cannot judge safety by appearance, which is why the rules exist.

Who are three trusted adults you could go to if you felt unsafe?
Think about your answer, then reveal below.
Model answer: Examples include: a parent or guardian, a teacher, a school counselor, a police officer, a firefighter, a grandparent, or another family member you trust.
Having a list of trusted adults in your mind means you always know who to go to if something feels wrong. These are people who have a responsibility to keep you safe and who you can count on. Knowing who your safe adults are before you need them is an important part of being prepared.
