Write a story about a scary or frightening moment in your life. What happened? How was it scary? Are you still frightened? Fear is a strong emotion and it motivates people to keep reading and find out what followed. Some examples of frightening moments are being trapped in a cave, lost in the woods or inside an old house with strange noises, or a traumatic event. A frightening experience could also be any personal event where you don't feel safe and were afraid something terrible was going to happen.

About five years ago. It was a quiet morning and I was alone, walking, going up a slope, about two minutes from my house.

Suddenly I hear a noise, and when I look up, I see a runaway car coming towards me. I thought: if I stay here, I will be run over, if I run to the street, he can change the path and run over me in the same way.

On my left side, there was a house with iron bars at the gate. I grabbed the bars and managed to climb the gate and fall into the house. It all took seconds. I only saw the car stopping at a pole, exactly where I was seconds ago.

Then I saw that the car was driverless and had a little girl of about three years old. The driver, mother of the little girl, fumbled when parking, and the car went down the hill without a driver. She tried but was unable to get the baby out of the car. The child had minor injuries and I didn't even get a scratch. I was born again.

it’s important not to respond to the bully because doing so generally just escalates the problem.

tell a trusted adult about what is happening and save the evidence. you should also let your internet or cell phone provider know, along with the operator of the site if it is happening online.

if the bullying continues, notify the local police and consider consulting an attorney if it becomes serious.

school authorities may also become involved if it involves students on campus.
