It seems you can't turn on the television anymore without hearing something about sexual predators. In today's Safe Family report, teaching your children 'stranger danger'.

In the last week, authorities in Texoma have arrested or indicted at least five sex offenders. That's a scary thought for parents of young children. Your family can not live in fear though, instead they must fight back.

Below are several websites dedicated to helping teach your children stranger danger:

what's all this about stranger danger, did you guys forget that most offenses occur with people you know. teach your children to trust you completely and always tell you everything

Is it a hispanic looking guy? If so he works at b-line in sherman I am not saying we are talking about the same guy. but the guy that works at b-line aint spooky he just love's kids he has kids of his own he's a great guy. But like i said we might not be talking about the same guy. But i would under stand thinking some one is spooky but this guy is just a nice guy you dont see that much anymore most people that do baloon animals want to make money off of it he just like's to make the kids smile.trust me i think we should hang all sexoffenders also.

Where we eat pizza there is a man who blows up baloons and makes animals out of them and gives them to the children. The parents should not allow this to happen. It's like he is trying to gain their trust. Spooky. I would not let my chid take it from him. He gives me the creeps.

The best way to protect or familys from sex offenders is to hang them and we would not have to worry about it.
