My daughter has a tendance of walking off or talking to strangers. I explained to her that there are very bad people out there is this world who do every bad things to children. She asked like what. I told her that they might touch children in their private parts (when daughter was 5 we hired a book about good touch, bad touch ? it also told them where their private parts are). These bad people might take you away from your mummy and daddy and you may never see them again.
Now every time she sees a person she says ?mummy that could be a bad man/woman?.
I have had a talk with my boys about this kind of stuff. I told them that some people are mean and might hurt them so never to go off with people you don't know. Even if they have a dog or offer a lolly or something yell at them that they don't want it and run off. Every now and then I reinforce it so they don't forget.
Is this Lydia a friend from school that was on the bus? That is a bit trickier if that was the case but the bus driver shouldn't let your child off without permission from you, either verbal or with a note!
Yeah, Lydia is a school friend, & thats why I'm so p*ssed at the bus driver. There wasn't even verbal permission! I always tell them or ring the school if she's to go somewhere else, or if I'm picking her up atc. ALWAYS.
Well. I sat Jaz down last night & tried to talk to her.
I gave her a list of about 4 people other than DH & I that she could go with if it was needed. Then she kept saying to me, 'But what about ........ & ........?' She just didn't get what I was trying to say.
I am going to talk to her teacher this afternoon & see if she can have a chat to her about it all. I'm hoping she listens to her.
