When teaching kids - particularly younger kids - any form of martial arts, physical-contact sport, etc. then it's very important to teach that there is a time and place for using these skills, and how to recognise it. If your grandson has not learned this, then that needs to be remedied, and that lesson will probably be most effective if it comes from his karate instructor, because it sends the message that learning when to use karate (and when not to) is an integral part of learning karate. From anyone else, it's just an attempt to restrict this fun new thing he's learned. | |

Is when I thought about putting my granddaughter in self defense. I can’t be here all the time. It’s turned around that I’m taking up for her. I decide to call the karate class and speak to the teacher. Stress to him the importance of him telling his students and their parents when is appropriate and when not to use what he is teaching.
