...he had a disagrement with a friend today and it got kind of serious....my son got mad ....and stood out in the rain instead of going into his house ( after - school arrangement to visit a friend ).

It just amazes me how he carries himself ...after years of hearing my rants and pounding on my desk , yelling at people on the phone and such.. and he would never even try to hurt a fly...at least a fly without sparing gear...LOL

proud dad...

My 10 year old son tested for second degree black belt ( Taekwondo ) Saturday...man he realy did great. I don't mean to take anyones space on the board...but I just have to boast about this. He had to read an essay , main " Gudo " form , 2 weapon forms ( sai / bo ) and a 5 board break.

Konichiwa, Freak-san!

Excellent discipline for such a young man!

Now you can really say, "My kid can beat up your dad"

Seriously, the skills and confidence will pay dividends his entire life.
