My daughter was at work talking to a strange man while loading his groceries in his car. Should I remind her about the dangers of strangers or continue to risk her getting abducted?

It's part of her job to talk to strangers or customers as they are normally called. She's a big girl now and no doubt knows all about stranger danger.

Your daughter is at work so it appears she is an adult and can take care of herself. Talking to a strange adult will not get anyone in trouble. Going somewhere with them might. If you believe that you will never make any new friends. leave her alone.

Yeah. Watch "Silence of the Lambs". She's just an American girl.

Talking to business customers is not the same thing as talking to 'strangers'.

HAPPY PUPPY!

SHE IS GROWN AND MATURE ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND THAT.

Is that her job? If so, tell her to do it quickly, don’t engage in any long conversations and stay alert. Ie ask “. Where is your car,” walk behind him. If it is not her job. Don’t do that.

No - she was doing what she is PAID to do.

If your daughter was "at work" while she was loading groceries into a strange man's car, then I'm going to assume that she's an employee of a grocery store, and it's part of her job to load groceries into a customer's car. That being the case, there's no reason in the world why she shouldn't talk to him while she's doing it..

We are not born to live in fear. Talking to strangers will not get an adult in trouble; going with them can. I recommend getting her the Gavin Debecker book, The Gift of Fear. In fact, I recommend everybody read it. I lived in bad neighborhoods (the first Oakland police helicopter was shot down a couple miles from my first apartment, which itself was broken into three times in two weeks) for a few years and am impressed by his breakdown of how ordinary people get into trouble.
