5’3” 100 lbs single woman in an increasingly violent city

Rates of crime are ticking up in my neighborhood. I’ve lived in a city for 20 plus years (40 now) and unbelievablely never learned any self defense.

Feeing particularly vulnerable as my husband left and I now have 2 small children in addition to myself to protect.

Seems like most issues are happening on the streets after nightfall but broad daylight doesn’t stop them. Lots of armed theft, mostly.

Should I just throw my phone, wallet in one direction and run the other way? What if they grab me?

Don’t think I would be able to outpower most threats but could run fast - however, small children cannot.
