Staying Safe

Body safety, trusted adults, strangers and knowing what to do when something feels wrong.

This is the topic every parent means to get to and puts off because it feels heavy — body safety, trusted adults, strangers, and what to do when something feels wrong. Written in age-appropriate, non-scary language, so the conversation can happen calmly instead of as an emergency.

Scenarios cover who counts as a "trusted adult" and how to identify one, what to do if a stranger approaches you, body safety basics in plain, comfortable words, and — most importantly — that it's always okay to tell a grown-up if something feels off, no matter what anyone says.
