Participant[quote=flu][quote=walterwhite]It gets worse.[/quote]
I know…. Why can’t Xe Services have a private school for k-6??? It would do my kid some good.
I really want her to learn how to kick ass. Her kung fu class is taught by a group of frickin pacifists.[/quote]
Well you beat me to the Blackwater punchline this time but I actually saw a piece on the Gracie Academy where they not only only teach fighting techiques but they teach confidence, bully coping strategies, and what to do incase physical contact is necessary. She may be a little young for this but they are very effective in turning timid kids into ones with self confidence and coping skills.
Sorry your kid is dealing with this. I dont want to turn this racial but she might be a target cause I think that people might clasify her as timid due her asian culture.
And before anyone jumps on me I have thought about this because my childern will be half asian, my wife has told me her childhood stories, and more than likely will face some of the same BS at some point.
BTW Gracie has an academy in Poway…

ParticipantMy kids are doing American Top Team, specializing in the Muay Thai track, and I wish I’d have gotten them started sooner. Older son, just turning 17 has size and body to play at next level in baseball, but doesn’t have swagger. ATT or Gracie started at an earlier age would have really helped (he’s only been in 4 months).
By the way the kids love MMA and really wanted to do this. At first I was looking at Karate and regular old Martial Arts places, but they wanted to learn the stuff the best fighters in the world use, so at ATT they’ll get to go through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and grappling as well. There are girls there by the way, though not quite as many as at the Karate studio next door.

ParticipantLet’s be careful assigning racial prejudice to a 5 year old demographic group. “People might classify her as timid due to her Asian culture”. Certainly not kindergarteners! Children at age 5 are still too young to pull the race card…unless they are being raised in a white supremecist environment.
P.S. my grandkids will be half Asian

I think your wrong but it is, of course, due to household and the ques they take…
Plus the childern already demonstrated that they were willing to ostrisize an individual that was different. It wasn’t racial but they found a common divide and used it against FLUs kid. Its only a matter of time before the kids will segment themselves via racial lines or cliques. I will tell you that I have worked a racial mixed schools and invariably the kid segement themselves alongs. It may not happen everywhere but it does happen.
