In the good old days, when I was in first and second grades, our books had stories about the nice, helpful policeman, and even had pictures of a small child holding the hand of the policeman. Do any of you remember those pictures and stories? “Our friend, the policeman.”
How life changes. Would we now encourage our children to run up to the policeman and hold his hand? I would tell my child, “Run for your life!” What would you tell yours?
