Answer to Question 1

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.

Answer to Question 2

C
