In my opinion, Shelby handled the situation responsibly, I would have done what she did. Shelby asked for help when she was in a bad situation, she called the cops and told her parents about the problem. She was very smart about the situation, and was very careful of not making the problem get bigger. In the end when she got kidnapped, she thought very carefully and even tricked the stalker to try and break free, and it worked.
