Dear Ms. Help,

My parents often work late. I have to be at home alone(单独), and I feel afraid. What should I do?

Hi, Nicole!

Nicole, 12years old

We all feel the same way sometimes. When you are at home alone, the first thing you need to do is keep safe(安全的). Ask your parents what you can't do when they aren't at home. You and your parents can also make some safe words. If someone comes to visit, but he doesn't know the safe words, never let him in. When you are at home alone, you can call your parents. Tell them how you feel,and they can also tell you how long they will still have to work. There is another way to make yourself(你自己) feel not that bad ﹣ you can keep yourself busy. Watching TV, cleaning the house, playing a computer game, talking to friends …

There are many things you can do at home. If you're busy, you may find the time passes(推移) quickly.
