should parents teach their children to defend themselves?

[Trill Clinton]

in regards to bullying/teasing, do you agree with parents who tell their children to fight back if someone hits them? do you think they should turn the other cheek?

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Yep. That's what my Dad taught me and what I will teach my kids.

[DJR210]

Let Jesus turn his cheek, my kid will hit you in the nose.

[RD2191]

Gotta defend yourself. Of course the school system is retarded so even if you get punched you can't punch back without getting suspended.

My son takes karate to defend himself. I would love to teach him to kick the other kids ass but I know it's not the right thing to do. There are a lot of jobs that require you have a clear background for security clearance and if you have one thing on your record, you're done. I don't want him to have shit on his record.

Pretty much

If the kid doesn't fight back and goes and tells, it just makes everything worse. All bullies are usually looking for is someone who just takes it. Even if the kid loses the fight, just fighting back will usually stop that shit.

:lol dude, how did you know I worked at walmart?

you ain't heard I'm good at predicting shit...just ask Lebron fan boy

[Sybok]

My dad taught me how to not only defend myself, but where exactly to put my foot when the guy was getting back up off the ground (right between his eyes). I was in 5th grade.

[spurraider21]

unless they have a short buzz-cut, just grab the hair, raise your knee, profit

[Katherine Robinson]

Most men do not know how to throw a proper punch, let alone defend against one. Teach your child defensive boxing and some dirty tricks if the opponent is bigger. Have him learn wrestling and he will have the tools to defend against 99.9% of unarmed men.

This can be thought to and apied against women as well.

[Koolaid_Man]

:lol Our vibrators are on sale also( I'm sure you're tired of shaking it.), just come to the section in the back of the store(by the bathrooms) and ask to enter the adult section.. the password is "wood."

how bout password = tootsie roll...

kids should be taught to protect themselves, but not to retaliate imho.

My sons both had karate for several years. They know if someone is trying to goad them into a fight that I expect them to walk away or use other means to try to defuse the situation. But they also know that if they actually get jumped that I expect them to defend themselves and not just lay there and take it.

No offense but karate is a joke when it comes to self defense, especially anything taught to kids. Enroll them in something that has wrestling, judo or boxing involved. In fact, taking a judo class and a boxing class would be much more beneficial than that joke called Take One's Dough.

Well the classes they took were with a coach who specialized in self defense for kids, karate was just one of the things used. He taught other self defense methods also, which included talks about "stranger danger", bullying, and how to defuse situations without fighting. Btw this was all when they were in early elementary school---both my sons are teenagers now (one is 6'5" 200 lbs, the other is 6'2" don't know how much he weighs) and very athletic; they've never had to defend themselves as of yet, but I think as long as they aren't grossly outnumbered or up against a weapon, they should be able to hold their own just fine.

everyone thinks their kids are very athletic...that is until they start competing against their black peers :lmao

[mrsmaalox]

I don't "think" my kids are athletic, I know they are. And so do the black kids whose roster spots they take on the varsity teams.

You have to defend yourself

This is true. You take one good public punking and even D-list bullies will be lining up for their piece of the action.
