Street Fighter? You scrub... real fighting gamers play Soul Caliber.

I agree that it's an instinctual thing to do... but while it's healthy enough to outline the potential risks of certain behaviors/relationships, it's also healthy to analyze 'threats' on their own merits. Blankly stating that everything is a threat (and the likes of stranger danger) is more likely to give your child trust issues than it is to do anything positive for them. Turns out... 'good' and 'neutral' people have a strong majority over 'evil' people

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
