ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Police 101

Okay kiddo, so police officers are people who are trained to keep everyone safe and enforce the rules. They wear a special uniform and carry things like a badge, handcuffs, and a gun.

They have a really important job, which is to make sure that people don't hurt each other or break the law. They also help people if they get into trouble, like if they get lost or need medical help.

When you see a police officer, it's important to be respectful and listen to what they say. If they tell you to do something, it's usually for your own safety.

If you ever need help or feel scared or unsafe, you can always go to a police officer and they will do their best to help you.
