The real opening page, word for word. 3 parts in total.
Part 1: Start here
Welcome. This kit helps you and a parent agree on two small things: a family code word, and a short routine called pause, then call back. Together they take about an hour to set up. After that, they take a few seconds to use.
What this kit does
- Walks you through choosing a code word in five steps.
- Gives you a short script for bringing it up with your parent, so it feels like a family habit and not a lecture.
- Gives you two wallet cards and a fridge sheet to print.
- Gives you a simple way to practice once a month.
What this kit does not do
It does not stop fraud. Nothing on paper can. Scammers change their stories all the time, and a code word is only one layer. What a code word and a routine can do is lower the odds that a rushed, frightening call gets treated as real. They also give your family a plan to fall back on when everyone's heart is pounding.
