Re: The feminization of todays youth
[ QUOTE ]
in regards to kids playing football, are there are lot of injuries? cbloom, I am all for taddling in the school. Fist fighting is fine if the kid is your size, but when your a small guy and there are angry fat kids who have self esteem issues fighting back isn't an option. If I tried that i would have had my face smashed in and lower self esteem to boot. [/ QUOTE ] AH!! This is EXACTLY what Im talking about. Girls bring up self-esteem issues, guys duke it out no matter how small or how big of a disadvantage they may be at. Playground fights arent going to get anyone seriuosly hurt, Id rather have my kid with walking around with a black eye after standing up for himself, than whining that fighting might hurt his self-esteem.

It's pretty hard not to notice. Any type of activity where "aggressive" behavior is required is becoming more and more frowned upon. [/ QUOTE ] Such aggressive behavior = "tag" and "dodgeball"

This is how kids get into gang violence, drug trafficking, rape, and murder. It's no laughing matter.
