At what age did you do the whole 'stranger danger' thing with your lo?

[ja9]

just wondering.

we haven't felt the need really. Over the past few weeks though ds has been talking about it at school - they have had visits from the police etc. They covered all sorts of aspects of safety so it wasn't at all alarmist iykwim. (ds is just 5 btw)

thanks.

ds is 2.9. am just aware at the moment how naive he is. he's a very sociable boy and will speak to any adult...

When dd was about 3.5, I think - although I did it in a very low-key way, just making sure that she knew not to go anywhere without me, even if someone else said it was OK.

I haven't really felt the need to make a big thing about "stranger danger" really.

ds2 ( age 3yrs and 10mths) has just done it at nursery, but I think he has got confused, I asked him about it yesterday and he said it meant 'the police taking you away' - so i think he has missed the point somewhere!
