I think you are right that I should probably advise Kelsie to loudly tell him to leave her alone, but nothing further.

By doing so, she gets witnesses and shows who is doing what. Once she yells 'LEAVE ME ALONE', she can then walk off, leaving the moron standing there and the first time she does it, I'm sure he'll be dumbfounded. He's victimizing her because he can. And rest assured, there's been witnessed harassment before, but no one ever wants to say anything for any number of dumb reasons. Her yelling that brings it out in the open in addition to giving her power and that is what she needs-power. She's not going to get it playing the helpless victim, nor is she going to get any back-up from the authorities because they are going to ask, 'well, what did she do to prevent it?'....you really want the answer to be 'nothing'?
