A friend says, “What is your alarm code? I promise I will not tell anyone.” They say friends should share secrets.

Choose what you would do

A
Tell them because they are your friend.
B
Say you are not allowed to share security codes and change the topic.
C
Write it on paper and hide it outside.
D
Tell them half the code as a joke.

What this teaches

Alarm codes and passwords are private. A strong friendship does not require sharing private security information. A good friend can respect a boundary.
