I can be very funny at times. Post a commentYou must be a registered user to post comments. |

I'm a very grateful and proud mother of 3. As they get older, stranger safety is more of an issue. We have a "secret word," and my oldest reminded me Friday that we ought to change it, so we did. If an adult, other than certain family members, unexpectedly offers my children a ride, the kids are supposed to ask, "What's the secret word?" No matter how plausible the adult's story, the kids are not to go with that person unless they hear that secret word. My daughters know to holler for their teacher or principal in that situation so they can contact me. We've never had to use it, but it's a cool safety idea for school-age kids.
