Today when I was on the way back to my house from the train station four boys I would estimate to be about 12 or 13 started giving me a hard time and circling around me. Most verbal abuse but getting really close to being in my face. I ended up taking a sort of detour path to my house as I didn't really want them to see which door I lived at . I told them in as polite as terms as I could to fuck off and eventually they went away.

Now, in my head a bit at the time was 'what do I do if they start really making me worry about my safety here?' I mean, I am pretty sure if I even pushed them away I would be up on some sort of charges or at the very least had some irate parent tracking me down. I know it is all academic because I ended up being find but it did make me wonder what right I would have had to protect myself against minors.

Does make me reconsider the offer one of my friends made to rent out my spare room ...would have been more confident to come directly to the house if I didn't live alone.
