Latchkey Kids

What would YOUR kids do if they were home alone when a stranger knocks? I had the opportunity to find out—though in a VERY public way (meaning they’re not speaking to me now). I “set” my kids up on a new Bill Stanton Dateline NBC show, which aired last night.
We all learned some important lessons.
For the record, though, what the camera DIDn’t show: the fact that my girls DID try to call my husband and I before they opened the door (we were instructed not to answer) and that they DID have hesitations. My husband is “positive” they would NOT have answered had the man at the door been dressed in a UPS or FedEx uniform. But still…it’s a learning lesson for us all.
What would YOUR kids do?

Mine would have opened the door. They’ve done it before, for the postman, for UPS and for neighbors. I made one watch your show and I will make the other one watch it too. They swear they’d never do that but actions speak louder than words. That show was a true service.
