Question what type person I should be if I see others in trouble ?

As a taxi driver I had a weird client in uber that spoke only English and Eastern European, it was a long ride she looked very tired or exhausted and breathing heavry dunno if sickness. Someone had ordered uber for her and he was waiting in the car right at the crossing to a main route and behind him a big apartment complex for others , she says he is with him and steps out and goes into the car and after a little the drive off. This felt very unusual the guy looked a little buffed as 50 year olding looking and it just felt like potential human trafficking case with forced labor.

But my main question is in regards if you in your life see someone in trouble and the one who does the violence looks like gang member or someone in organized crime what should you do I don’t want to let them do what they want but I understand this world mostly sucks bad peolle often remain in top and it’s a big risk to step in and risk getting hurt or ended or targeted later for intervening. I know it’s rare likely but a lot of human trafficking and other stuff is happing in shadows. Some good influences who don’t post much ego sometime say they believe men or they themselves would be willing to risk their life for others if they ever see it. But I feel scared generally and wondering what you guys in your own life and to this question think about it.

Self defense for adolescents that are busy?

My kid is nearing teen years and is rather busy with school, competitive dance and other activities. I’m wondering if there is anything for them to learn any techniques without committing to doing something weekly for years? They got a pretty solid base with core and arm/leg strength because at dance there is a lot of conditioning and strengthening but afraid that kiddo doesn’t know how to stand up for self.

Thank you.

Self defense tip: Put a sock on the end of a baseball bat

Then if you ever need to defend yourself and someone grabs the end of the bat, all they'll get is the sock.

Is BJJ actually good for self defense or is it overhyped?

Compared to things like wrestling, judo, striking.

Please help: best advice for a 16 year old girl in CA to-from school

Our high school aged daughter has a stalker. She began noticing him yesterday, walking home from high school. Today, he followed her in such an obvious and creepy manner that 3 complete strangers pulled over to warn her that he was following her. He made 3 u-turns to stalk her today.

We are in California, and this is happening on her walk home from school. Police are now aware, but we also want to ensure her safety when our work won’t allow us to escort her home from school

Here are our Ca problems:
- The school prohibits pepper spray. (I am going to push for her to be allowed to store pepper spray in the office because this creep is following her).

- Any weapon options that a 16 year old can have in CA? (ccw age is 21)

- recommendations on personal alarms or sound devices?

We are enrolling her in “model mugging”, now that we understand the dangers. I am so upset with myself we didn’t work on personal safety sooner because she’s so tiny - and she was so unaware (wearing headphones, didn’t recognize the danger which was so onvious and concerning that strangers were interfering, she didn’t understand to use her phone, was too afraid to take photo, etc)

Thank you.
