Kids and Safteyville

I wrote in a previous post about Dateline’s Predators, and said I get back to it, so here’s some more interesting safety information for kids.

I was playing a little game with my son tonight called Safetyville, I don’t know where we got it, but it asks questions like, “what do you do when you lost?”, and other good questions. It turns out the game is an advertisement for a kids I.D service, which is a neat idea, so check it out http://www.kidzidz.com/.
Back to the game, I do have to knock the writers of Safteyville a bit. The first two cards in the stack had ridiculous questions that no father would ever tell his 3 yr. old son, but I will tell you. The point is, this is so rare, I will never worry about it happening. The questions are so politically charged (special interest groups), it’s pathetic.

Question: A friend of yours confides that he would love to come to school and shoot all of the students that have taunted or rejected him. You should tell ______ as soon as possible. Answer: a trusted adult

Question: Your school is under siege by one or more student shooters and you are stuck inside your classroom. Keep the lights out, door locked and make sure everyone hides out of view of _________. Answer: all doors and windows.
