We should never keep secrets from our safe adults that take care of
us. If someone asks you to keep a secret that is unsafe or makes you
feel uncomfortable or scared, TELL A SAFE ADULT. Remember, to have
at least FIVE safe adults you can always go to and tell if something
happens that's not okay. You are worth keeping safe!

SURPRISES...
•
Surprises
are
okay
to
keep
secret
for
a
little
bit
if
everyone
is
going
to
find
out
about
it!
•
For
example:
Not
telling
anyone
about
your
little
brother's
surprise
birthday
party
is
okay

everyone
will
know

party!!
SECRETS
•
Secrets
are
never
okay
to
keep
from
our
safe
adults.
If
we
are
not
allowed
to
tell
anyone
about
something
that's
happened,
that
person
may
not
be
a
safe
person
to
trust.
•
For
example:
Someone
hurts
you
and
tells
you
not
to
tell
anyone
or
they'll
hurt
you
again.
No
one
is
supposed
to
find
out
and
that's
not
okay.
We
should
go
tell
a
safe
adult
right
away!
Answers: 1 – Surprise, 2 – Surprise, 3 – Secret, 4 – Secret, 5 – Surprise.
Remember to always go tell a safe adult if something happens to you that's not okay or someone asks you to keep an unsafe secret.
