[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I taught my sons that it is NEVER ok to hit a woman.  Good luck to the PP that keeps insisting it's his right to defend himself if a woman hits him. If she presses charges he's up a creek without a paddle.  No judge or jury will side with the man.  [/quote]

I know- I teach my son the same thing. I absolutely think the girl was wrong here- but I think the boy should have stopped provoking her or found a way to walk away or involved an adult if it was an option. For the person who said that men are just as likely to be abused as women--maybe true, but women are *a lot* more likely to be killed. If a woman is unstable and becomes physical, it's really important that men recognize that and learn to walk away from volatile situations. It's not about right and wrong. The girl was wrong- she assaulted the boy--she hit first--I agree--still not the long term issue here.
