[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For example, I my 11 yr old is 6’0”....he looks like a man. I have told him that he needs to comply if a cop asks him to do something as they have a gun but that under no circumstances should they consent to a sexual act or harming someone else. Am I missing something? How do we keep kids safe? [/quote] Make him understand that he should not resist arrest (and this is so slippery because honestly, they accuse people who are being suffocated of resisting arrest when they are just flailing because they can't breathe) and that if interviewed by police (at the police station OR at school) he should just repeat that he wants his parent there or a lawyer. He should not talk to them without a lawyer there. Hopefully if you were there you would get him a lawyer. I wrote this on another thread but my dh is an attorney and has been telling our kids this since they were 5. It is important for them to know. [/quote]
