Why are some @Stanford students such CHICKENS πŸ”πŸ”πŸ” when walking at night?

Why are some @Stanford students such CHICKENS πŸ”πŸ”πŸ” when walking at night? Sometimes I'm walking back to my car & some act like they're little red riding hood (even a guy one time) & I'm the wolf 🐺🐺🐺.

I can assure you I'm just as nervous crossing paths with you not b/c ur threatening but because you DON'T have any self confidence. You're like little squirrels 🐿️🐿️🐿️ afraid of anything that moves. Be strongπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ. Stop thinking in terms of "just little special me" 

Take some self-defense πŸ₯‹πŸ₯Š classes if it will help your confidence, or carry some pepper spray if it makes you feel better. You're NOT little kids anymore. Start growing up. That's what college is about. 

And I can assure you 95 to 99% of people DON'T CARE how special u
THINK u are. 

And to the  Stanford administration: please consider offering classes to help your young students gain confidence when walking alone. Scared students are like scared hikers: they let their imagination get the best of them
ruin it for everybody else. 

Fear is contagious and so is courage. What's more beneficial? You're supposed to be helping these kids grow up not just by memorizing and regurgitating,  but also emotionally & physically amongst other things. 

Maybe a lot of these kids grew up in suburbs and the Stanford setting doesn't challenge them enough in terms of "street smarts". Bring some people in to show them how to be tough, or at least ACT TOUGH in the right circumstances rather than thinking of themselves as little lambs πŸ‘. And how to discern between a real danger versus a nice guy. 

Offer  some lectures showing statistics that most people are NOT predators, NOT even most muscular males. (And that muscular males can be their best protectors, but not if you treat them like predators).
