Tell your child to never go anywhere with a stranger, even if they offer them a ride or a gift.
Make sure your child knows your phone number and how to call 911 in case of an emergency.
Practice stranger danger scenarios with your child so that they know what to do if they are approached by a stranger.

Chapter 2: Online Predators

Online predators are adults who use the internet to target and exploit children. These predators may use social media, chat rooms, or online games to connect with children and groom them for sexual abuse.
