Life Stories: Shop theft with common intention
Shop theft
Remember, taking things from shops without paying is wrong, even if your friends suggest it. This is called shop theft, and it's against the law.
If you go along with your friends to steal, you can get into trouble too, even if you don't take anything yourself. This is because helping or encouraging others to steal is also not allowed.
Always be honest and respect other people's property. If your friends try to convince you to steal, be brave and say no.
If you're not sure what to do, talk to a trusted adult like your parents or teachers.

Life Stories: Killer Litter
Killer Litter
This second story is about throwing things out of windows or from high places which is very dangerous. This is commonly known as 'killer litter'.
Even small objects like toys or food can seriously hurt people walking below. Imagine if someone threw something heavy and it hit you or someone you love - it could cause terrible injuries or even death.
If you see someone about to throw things from a height, tell them to stop and inform an adult immediately. Remember, keeping our neighbourhoods safe is everyone's job, and it starts with you being responsible.
