Has anyone used "Police" name to scare your child into behaving? If so, try to reverse it by telling them how brave the police are, etc. Or maybe get your child interested in the police car! Some kids just like vehicles, that might be a way to get your child to get over the fear.

I know it's not any time soon, but when the opportunity comes, how about attending police roadshows? Or when you happen to bump into police officers, show your child they go about their daily business too, for example buying food.

If i were you i will let my Child see me talking and Chatting to police that way he or she will know that if Mummy is able to talk to police they are nice from then tell all about what police actually do

You can make up some stories during story telling time by telling your child how a police controls the traffic, patrols the neighborhoods, responding to emergency calls, arrests "bad people" etc

Can play YouTube video on police cartoon to change his mindset

Story telling and intro your kid with some police related show

Stop talking abt scared of police That should help

Maybe a storytelling of how brave the police helps.

Why is he so afraid of police in the first place?

Watch cute cartoon of police at YouTube
