The Best Way to Teach Kids About Police?

"So, what about cops?  I was raised with Sesame Street.  They showed me 'the people in my neighborhood,' one of them being a friendly police officer.  The meme then and now is that we should trust the police, especially in the case of emergencies.   Here you can see Sesame Street promoting the idea that a police officer could help a young child find their way home.  Unfortunately, in this day and age, the police officer would probably dream up some charge for the mother or father that happened to somehow lose track of their kid."
