[QUOTE="Jfdlsjfd, post: 9544548, member: 42856"] Because the odd of any random adult being dangerous is actually extremely low. Children who are in need of help would generally do better by asking a random adult rather than trying to do things on their own. Stranger Danger is the opposite of what children are taught in Japan and in most place where children are expected to get to school by themselves by walking or using non-dedicated public transportation at an early age (primary school). And while there are few youngsters in Japan, the cause isn't their massive death rate in the hand of murderous strangers :) Honestly, At Attin society seems extremely well policed. Hoth is an ice planet, At Attin is an accountant planet. What could ever happen there? It is pretty logical that children would be taught that, in case of a problem happening, they should turn to the nearest person and ask them for help -- which would likely result in a Safety Droid to be summoned. Fern (which is supposed to be the smart one and seems to be the eldest of the children) consistently saying that they should seek out any random adult for help and seeming to thinkk that it's their duty to help children (think of her reaction when Crimson Jack claims the rank of captain?) is probably a reflection of the At Attin upbringing, which I found a nice touch. What age are they supposed to be, BTW? [/QUOTE]
