Normally I would walk away from harassment from a stranger. There are some very strange people and I don't think you would want to take the chance of escalating the situation.

I'm not sure how I would have handled that verbal harassment at the mall. I tend to walk away from confrontation myself. However they had been victims of this abuse in a public place in front of the children. That man was a jerk. I would have herded up the kids and walked away.

I think Jamie & Lou handled the verbal harassment very well. Back in the day when I was younger, I'd have walked away trying to avoid any more confrontation but now that I'm older, I've gotten a lot more outspoken so I'd definitely stand my ground.

Lou and Jamie handled the stalking and harassment very well and if it had been me and my children I would have done the same thing!

Jamie and Lou handled the verbal harassment as best they could. I also tend to be the "peace at any price" girl so I completely see why this happened.

They handled it well but I tend to be impulsively stand my ground. This isn't always best.
