In such a situation how can a parent teach such a child about personal safety? One such graphic tool to use is the concept of social circles. Use this colour-coded tool to explain varying levels of familiarity with people the child may encounter on a daily basis. This tool may come in handy to find a way to help him\/her distinguish unknown strangers from near and dear ones.<\/p>\n
