The nurse offers suggestions to maintain safety for "latchkey" children, which include the child's:
a. Memorizing important emergency telephone numbers
b. Opening the door only to people who look normal or safe
c. Telling telephone callers that parents are busy rather than not at home
d. Going straight to the telephone and calling if he or she comes home and finds the door ajar
C
Safety numbers should be posted, rather than relying on the child's memory. The child should not open the door to anyone. It is not possible to tell by looking if someone is safe or not. Telling callers that the parents are busy is important so that the child does not let callers know that no adult is at home. Children should not enter the home if they find the door ajar. They should go to a neighbor's home and call.
