I was coaxed into a classroom once in 7th grade by two girls because they knew my passion for science! Before I got into the class I saw movement behind a poster on the window. As I backed away and told the girls trying to get me into the class that I had to leave the other girl came running out with a knife. They all three chased me down the hall into the open playground where no one was.
I stoped running and turned around ready to defend myself when I realized I was a lone! Out of fear I threw my hands up and told the girl with the knife to bring it on! I knew how to fight fair, but like this girl I didn't know what my odds were being jumped. These girls were bigger then me and the one with a knife was a relocated troubled teen from the city with assault charges on her.
I honestly couldn't tell you what I was thinking at the time or how it ended the way it did. But some how I put enough fear in all three of these girls enough that they left! I didn't even know why until later why they were targeting me. But it was all because my brother wouldn't go out with the girl that had the knife!! For some reason she blamed me!
It was after that day I started studying martial arts, weight training, track, football! Anything that would prevent this situation again. And when I got into the military, I took the hardest survival trainings I could get into. I never wanted to feel vulnerable and helpless again. And I never have. Not any other person anyways... lol...

As a kid, I mowed lawns and was making $15 a week. In sixth grade, I was targeted by three 8th graders. The first day they took my books and tore out half the pages, threw my shoes up in a tree and showed me a knife. They told me it would cost me $15 a week to make it home alive every week.
I went back later that night and staged the battle field. When the kid with the knife asked me for the money, I reached behind a tree and pulled out a trash can lid (shield) and 30 inches of a broom stick (sword) and before he could pull the knife, I went Viking berserker on him. I beat him like a rented mule. His buddies took off. I beat him till he couldn't resist. I never had a problem with them again.

SFC (Join to see) I firmly believe in defending oneself, and teaching your children to stand up for what they believe in. This vid is amazing Mary, but I also feel that people need to be able to think their way out of situations as well
