“Not calling police when someone tried to break into my room”

I didn't call the police when someone tried to break into my room during a party. I was too scared and thought it was just a prank. Later I realized I should have taken action to protect myself and others.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew how to handle a situation like that when I was younger"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to call the police if you feel threatened or uncomfortable"
