Here are the ANSWERS

Below you will find the answers to all of the questions you just answered with explanations.


1. A stranger is:
C. A stranger is simply someone you don't know! Not all people are bad. In fact, most are good, but all strangers are people you don't know.

2. You can tell a bad person by:
D. Many kids (and some adults, too) often feel that a bad person is someone who is dirty, stinky, and yucky-looking. Sometimes they can be, but other times they can look just like anyone "respectable." A bad person may know that kids stay away from people who look scary, so they might go out of their way to make sure they're clean, well-dressed, and might even have an expensive car. You can only tell a bad person by their actions. If they do things that scare you or make you feel uncomfortable, get away!

3. Should unfamiliar adults ask kids for help or directions?

A. No! Adults, if they are lost, out of gas, have a flat tire, need help carrying groceries-whatever-can always find another adult to help them. It's fine to help out your mom or dad, or adults that your parents tell you are okay, but if someone you don't know tries to get you to come closer to them and help, go the other direction.

4. If you need help, and a nearby adult doesn't want to get involved, you can grab onto them, and refuse to let go until you're safe by using:
C. Truthfully, it doesn't really matter what you call it, but in this case it is called the Velcro Technique. The point to remember is if you're in a public place and trying to flee from a bad person, you can make another adult in the area become involved by wrapping your arms and legs around them and not letting go. No matter what they do, hold on to them until you feel safe.

5. If someone grabs you who is bigger and stronger than yourself, and you want to get away, which technique can you use, which will help you break the attacker's hold?
A. If someone grabs you, the most important thing is not that you wound that person, but that you get away. They will expect you to scream, bite and kick. What they may not expect is for you to begin to whip your arms like a windmill and break their grasp. Practice this with a parent, and figure out how this works.

6. If you are being followed by a person in a car, you should:
C. If you feel uncomfortable about a car that seems to be stalking you, turn around immediately and run the other direction. Why? Because it's a lot faster for you to turn your body around than it is for an entire car to change direction on a road. It also helps if you're walking on the side of the street that is opposite the flow of traffic. That way, someone would have to go across the opposite direction of traffic to make a grab at you.

7. If you end up in a car that you're not supposed to be in, you should:
E. If you end up in this situation, you must find a way to get out! Most of the above answers deal with drawing attention to yourself and your situation. If you're in the trunk and you tear out the wires in the very back, it's more likely that a police officer will stop the car to ticket it. If this happens, pound on the trunk with everything you've got. When you throw yourself across the front of the driver and honk the horn, you're not only blocking his or her field of view, but you're making a lot of noise. Finally, when you jam something into the key slot if you're stopped (or pull the wires under the dash that go to the brake or gas pedals), then you'll hopefully "break" the car.

8. If you're wearing an ID bracelet, some unique jewelry, a note scribbled on a restaurant napkin, or anything else that your family might recognize as yours, and you're taken by someone you should:
A. Drop your trail of clues in public places along the way. Make sure whoever has taken you doesn't see your clues. You can leave such personal items as an ID bracelet, a necklace, or, if you can, a note at the table where you've eaten, in a crowded parking lot, toll booth, drive-up window or other places where they may be seen by others. Tossing things out on the freeway means that they'll almost never be found. And, if you hide your clues too well, such as between a mattress, they are less likely to be seen, too.

9. You've been taken and locked in a room. You can't get out of the window, and nobody will hear you if you yell. It's getting dark, what do you do?
B. If you're in a situation where you have to escape, and you've been put into a room alone, then you must always be thinking for a way out! If you're in a room with a window to the outside, and a light, however, you can possibly flip the lights off and on long enough for fellow neighbors to notice and hopefully investigate. As for C, since kidnapping a child is a major crime, it's doubtful that you'll be taken to a doctor even if you're really ill.

10. Someone approaches you with an empty leash and a picture of a really cute puppy. He says that he's lost "Buddy," right in the woods on the edge of the park. If you help him find his dog, he'll even pay you $20. What do you do?
A. Get away, right away! The "lost pet" ploy is a common one used to lure kids away from public areas. Kids figure that the person must be telling the truth since they look so sad, and they even have a leash and photo! But don't buy it. The fact is that another adult has many, many resources to find a lost pet-starting with the animal shelter, other adults in the area, lost posters and more. Always be suspicious when someone you don't know tries to tug at your heartstrings, or uses a cash reward, to get you away from the crowd.
