A former CIA officer and FBI special agent has revealed the seven things she would never let her eight-year-old daughter do, given her past occupations.

Tracy Schandler Walder, 44, of Texas, previously worked as a staff operations officer at the CIA's Counterterrorism Center, and as a special agent in the FBI's Los Angeles field office.

In a recent video, Schandler Walder listed some of the precautions she takes as a parent and former spy. First and foremost, she said she wouldn't let her daughter go to sleepaway camp because she thinks her daughter is too young.

She went on to reveal that she has no guns in her home, despite having worked for the CIA and the FBI, saying, "It's just something I choose not to do."

"I always, always, always close all my meds and my alcohol," she continued.

When it came to the fourth thing she does to protect her daughter, she said, "I always Google all the teachers she has, every teacher or coach that's in her life," she said. Continuing her list, she said she wouldn't let her daughter 'go to and from school on her own'.

“I also wouldn't let her use the bathroom in a restaurant or any public place alone. I always go with him," she added.

In the end, the mother ended her video by saying that her daughter is also at an age where "I don't let her play unsupervised without the presence of an adult."

Schandler Walder was a student at the University of Southern California when she was recruited by the CIA at a job fair. After leaving the CIA, she became an FBI special agent.

Many commenters praised her for the safety tips she shared in her latest video, and some added that they take similar precautions with their children.
