I think you should listen to your parents! It hard to trust people now especially if you are young! What they taught you is for your own safety.

well i guess with so many bad happening around like kidnapping and all every parent on this earth gives the same advice of not talking to strangers or not accepting anything to eat or gifts from strangers... even i was brought up saying the same things.

yeah,when i think of these terrible things like kidnapping,i feel the world is not wonderful as i thought.sometimes this can be really horrible.but we have to carry on coz life is still on and on.so the necessary awareness is what we need.

NEVER talk to strangers and never open your door to salesmen. Thye do not know you..you don't owe them anyhting. Stay away form strangers. Thye could be dangerous, even if they look nice.
