[quote=Anonymous]My DD is 14.5 so I'm having different talks with her, but two things from your post stuck out to me: 1. Developing street smarts. So, knowing that the homeless man who asks for your leftover bag of food is harmless, but the homeless man following you is a problem. Teach her to walk out of any public bathroom where someone in there makes her uncomfortable. So if someone is shooting up, holding a gun, etc. 2. Knowing when NOT to answer questions. A teacher at your school asking how your weekend was and what you did? Fine. A cab driver asking what school you go to after tell you you're pretty? Not fine. (That cab one happened to us. I put my hand on DD's leg as a signal to be quiet and I answered him vaguely.) [/quote]
