Heck, even the dad can do it with the kids! It's an excellent way to learn discipline and can give people peace of mind, without having to go to therapy and be seen as "weak" by the dad. I hope you can suggest it to them as a family activity :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-29568892452380239842015-06-26T08:09:31.268-04:002015-06-26T08:09:31.268-04:00Good insight Anonymous.

I would also wonder if he was bullied or feels like he needs to compensate for being short.ZDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09855368420226165272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-44734610530880311362015-06-25T19:53:31.292-04:002015-06-25T19:53:31.292-04:00I really think this dad was bullied as a kid and h...I really think this dad was bullied as a kid and he doesn't want his kids to end up like him. I suggest karate for both kids. Any martial art that is defensive not offensive. He will learn self control this way as well as getting any aggression out. Also, what NC said about future consequences definitely needs to be discussed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-12665281402474562652015-06-25T17:00:20.465-04:002015-06-25T17:00:20.465-04:00I'd mention to dad what Jean said, "...pa...I'd mention to dad what Jean said, "...part of growing up is learning to get along with other people." Tell him about the future, where his son won't be able to just kick/hit his boss when the boss does something his son doesn't like. Maybe dad will see the long-term/bigger picture. Maybe he won't, but it's worth a try.ncnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-27940413686719387562015-06-25T16:20:50.095-04:002015-06-25T16:20:50.095-04:00So the dad has a Napoleon complex.

I get that mom left and he's trying to protect them, but part of growing up is learning to get along with other people. I don't know if I'd stay. Jeannoreply@blogger.com
