“”That is not nice to say to her and she didn’t like you yelling at her,” a little boy passing by with his mother and sister told the harasser, according to Price. “You shouldn’t do that because she is a nice girl and I don’t let anyone say mean things to people. She’s a girl like my sister and I will protect her.”

When Price thanked the little boy, whose words encouraged the harasser to leave, he simply replied, “I just wanted to make sure your heart was OK.””

Ahhhh I’m dying of melty joy smiles. Yes!
