This probably is one of the most damaging messages to tell children. Lets forget that more people, whether adult or child, are attacked, abused or murdered by people they know. What really annoys me about this message is that it damages society. Healthy communities contain women willing to walk over to strangers to say hello, who offer help to people struggling with shopping bags or even just smile as they pass people in the street. Men in these healthy communities wave at strangers as they pass in their cars. Some speak. No, I would tweak this lesson to be: Dont speak to strangers carrying chainsaws and who are wearing hockey masks. Moreover, people who dont talk to strangers tend to end up marrying their cousins.
