I did come home alone once to find an intruder in our house. But I was in college so I wasn't a little kid. I yelled at the guy and asked him who the F he was. He informed me that he was "nobody" and booked it out of my house. I then proceeded to run outside, lock myself in the car in my driveway, call the police, and FREAK OUT.

My parents live out in the country and they were out for dinner while we were at home. A car pulled into the house late (9 pm or so) and there was 2 women at our door. Usually we would hid and pretend no one was home but since all the lights were on it was pretty obvious people were there. They asked to use our phone and they were in our house for awhile, my mom and dad had never been more mad as us when we told them. They left with no incident, but we should have never let them in!

I can't recall stranger danger experiences.

Someone once tried to pick up my little brother from the bus stop. We called the police and a state trooper was there at the bus stop for the next few days.

My great-great-great-grandmother actually had more stranger danger experiences than I did. We have a story written down by one of her children.

'The road she traveled was a dirt road lined on both sides by fences. One evening a man stepped out from behind some bushes along the fence row and said something to her about being alone. She said," No, I am not alone." He said, "But I don't see anyone else." She replied, "I am never alone," meaning the Lord was always with her. Just then her grandfather appeared in his buggy. Her grandfather asked the man what he was doing there, and he pleaded he wasn't going to hurt her. A few days later, however, the man was caught molesting a child.'

Craziness. That was in 1906!
