The situation
Lena had always been taught to be polite. But Mum taught her something else, too: if Lena ever felt unsafe, it was okay to not be polite — to say "no" loudly, to run, to shout, or to make a big fuss. When it comes to staying safe, being safe is more important than being polite. (Feeling words: Sure · Strong)
