chosen.content: Encourage your 8 year old to stay aware and alert when walking home from school. Teach them to make sure the paths they take are well-lit, to never accept rides from strangers, and to cross the street at designated crosswalks. Additionally, if your 8 year old is walking with friends, suggest that they walk at least three feet away from the edge of the sidewalk and keep in touch with one another at all times.
  
  Lastly, talk to your child about what to do if a stranger tries to talk to them. Reassure them that it is ok to yell, scream and RUN away from danger and instruct them to always let you know exactly where they are. Setting some ground rules and discussing how to stay safe will give your child peace of mind while walking home.
