Shade_13 Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Discussing anything with the kid is welcome, nowadays they are going to learn everything by themselves anyway, so it had better come from you, that way you can at least put it right. Besides, spending some time with offspring, doing anything, is good enough.The child's gonna find trouble at some point, so he better not harm himself or the opponent trying to mimic what he's seen in that Jackie Chan movie the other day. Either that, or he'll be picking up a stone or something sharp and pointy to defend himself, going for eyes and such, and i'd rather he just kicked the other guy below the knee instead. Knowing how to handle oneself in a fight adds to confidence, it doesnt mean the kid's gonna go terrorizing the neighborhood. If he doesnt know right from wrong and is into bullying, he'll find a way to hurt others' feelings without knowing how to land a punch, so its not about fighting, its about morale, the two can be separate.

lemmingllama Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014  Meaning you teach them to fight or not well duh?! i am going to make them Superior than the other children even if they hate me for that   Well, you could teach them to be so intimidating or charismatic that they would never have to get into fights. So the question was pretty valid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afternoon Nap Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 I got in a number of fights before I practiced fighting. But after I've got some training, I have never been into any other fight again, perhaps because I became smarter to stay out of trouble. And I bet no crazy dude would want to pick a fight with me.

Reijin Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 I would teach my child how to protect him or her self, and be sure not to start any fights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwelveForever Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 I feel it is important to teach children self defense if ever a chance they find themselves in any type of danger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afternoon Nap Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 More importantly, do they even want to learn, to practice, and to get stronger, faster, and more flexible? If yes, then no reason not to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronScythe Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 At a young age (below 10), teach them how to block. And then lead them onto how to counter hit following a block. If you teach them how to punch people outright, they will punch people. Nobody's kid is perfect, and maintaining calm focus during these years - it's plain not going to be 100% of the time (temper tantrums) and you'd be naive to think otherwise.  Now at a slightly older age or after a few too many fights (10+) then you can teach them about striking. At this point they at least have the capacity to realize they will be creating trouble in an emotional state. They're concerned with their image. They understand consequences fully enough to make a call that attacking is not a good idea to get what they want.  The easiest way to explain this is that anyone can throw a punch in anger, but it takes a calm mind to not be hurt yourself. So you want to train this instinct, self preservation, with avoiding injury above disabling the attacker. To avoid injury you must remain calm.  And being calm is the essence of self defense.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highland3r Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 I think yes, but they need to only use it in self-defense. I mean if you had a son and some kid started a fight with him, I think he has every right to fight back. If you had a daughter and some asshole tried to rape her.. It would be good if she at least had the sense to kick him as hard as she should in the balls.. lol  For self-defense I have no issue with that.
