Mom Marcie Whalen explains why she doesn't teach her kids about 'stranger danger' and it makes a ton of sense.

Her approach teaches kids safety skills without instilling a fear of people they don't know.

Some strangers will be more trustworthy and safe than some people kids know, so automatically feeling paranoid about every stranger won't guarantee their safety.
