[quote=Anonymous]I thought the exact same thing as you until faces with brats/bullies/asses - whatever you want to call them. My H was an avid supporter of martial arts and I thought it was bull.

Ends up my sons has had to use is at least 5 times (now in middle school) and while I don't think she should be the agressor - if she had the confidence she could defend herself it will profit her in the future. She should tell him to shut it and feel confident that she could defend herself. (Of course there are adults around.) Bullies have power trip issues and they need to be put in their place.

Besides a 10 year old girl is probably bigger and stronger than a 10 year old boy.

You can complain, complain and complain all you want - maybe not go to this camp next year. But if this were school - the same thing would happen and she would be stuck. She needs to learn to stand up for herself plain and simple. No matter how shy - people can sniff out a shy person and often they are the target.

Of course she can't drop him this summer - hence the juijitsu classes in the winter.

I have BTDT - have you? Have you really had a child that has been bullied, teased, made to hate something they love by the words and actions of another. She needs tools to deal with this.[/quote]
