Good Surprises:
Make people feel good
Are things that people will enjoy
If it’s something that’s going to make someone feel good and they’re going to enjoy it or it is a treat for them then it’s a good surprise.It’s ok to keep them as a surprise and not tell anyone until the surprise is ready. For example if you were holding a surprise birthday party for somebody. That's a good surprise!
Bad Secrets:
Can hurt people
Make people sad or angry
If something bad has happened or you’ve done something you shouldn’t have you need to talk about it. Secrets aren’t good, even if you think you’ve done something that’ll make somebody feel sad or cross with you.
You need to be able to talk about everything, even bad secrets – you don’t want to have bad secrets, so you should always find someone you can trust, like an adult, who you can tell that secret too.
If someone finds out about a bad secret it can often be worse than telling them about it.
Remember if things make you feel bad or could hurt someone then they’d be a Bad Secret.
You shouldn’t keep bad secrets and people shouldn’t ask you to either.
Always tell someone you trust if you have a bad secret and keep telling people until someone helps you.
Remember : If it’s something that’s going to make someone feel good and they’re going to enjoy it it’s a good surprise and it’s ok to keep that as a surprise and not tell anyone until the surprise is ready. But If something bad has happened to you or somebody you know, or if its something that is making you feel bad or could hurt someone and make them feel angry, or upset then it’s a bad secret and you shouldn’t keep it to yourself – you should tell someone about it.
