Important Rules To Stay Safe

 In my new book The Girls Vanished AKA Oak Horse Ranch Mystery after two girls disappear walking home from school, Lt. Adams talks of the California Police Department talks to The Middle School about simple rules to follow so students won’t get hurt or kidnapped. These are the rules. Please follow the rules:

                                                                                                                              i.    “Never talk to strangers.  Let’s hear it.”

Computer Safety

a. Be very cautious when you are chatting online in the chat rooms. You never know who is on the other end of the computer. You could think it’s somebody your own age and it could very well be an older person who does not have your safety in mind.

b.   Do not set up a visit to that person unless you tell your parents about this meeting first.

c.   If you still insist on going to meet this person.  Take a friend or two with you. Never go alone.

d.    

He had the students repeat the rules after he said them and then they were given a hard copy in case they forgot.
