Tattling Rules

Whenever you are deciding if you should tell an adult, follow the tattle rules.
These rules will help you decide if you are tattling or warning!

Rule #1

Be a Danger Ranger!

If a person or animal is in danger, you must warn a grown up.

Rule #2

Be a Problem Solver!

If the problem involves you, take charge and try hard to solve it yourself first.
Ask yourself if it is a BIG problem or a small problem.

We can usually solve small problems by ourselves.

Rule #3

Now or Later?

Is the problem a now problem or a not now problem?

If it is a now problem, it might be an emergency. Tell an adult right away.

If it is a later problem, it is probably not an emergency. Try to solve the problem by yourself later on.

Rule #4

M.Y.O.B.--Mind your own beeswax!

If the problem is not dangerous and does not involve you, Do Not Tattle!
