Dear Parents,
According to Dr. Foster Cline, a trend-setting child and adult psychiatrist, and Jim Fay, one of
Americaâs top educational consultants, parents who try to ensure their childrenâs success often
raise unsuccessful kids. Here Are Things You Can Do To Ensure That Your Child Wonât Be A Wimp.
First off, you need to realize that deep down inside, your child wants to feel safe and strong.
Plus you and I both know that making kids feel safe and strong is more important than just having
them run around that soccer or baseball field. The main reason that caring parents keep their kids in
this martial arts program is because itâs the only program that actually builds coordination, agility,
and fitness, while intentionally learning about friendships, commitment, decision making, goal
setting, respect and responsibility. Attributes that are neglected by other activities.
Every Parent Has To Be A Hero And Make The Right Choice For His Childâs Future.
I can tell you countless stories about kids who loved training but their parents stopped bringing
them because they wanted to go swimming with their friends or just play baseball during the
summer. Well… school started and their child got out of the habit of coming to martial arts class, and
what do you know⌠the weeds started attacking their childâs focus, perseverance, and self-Esteem.
The child started becoming depressed, anxious, not remembering how to deal with the
bullies, teasing, not fitting in, and making new friends. These parents then wondered why their
child was not as confident as he ought to be. They failed to see the real Battles kids are facing
these days. And What Are These Battles That Many Parents Fail To Recognize.
Hereâs The Shocking Research. Here are the responses from elementary school
kids who were polled every year to list the five toughest things about going to school. Every
year they consistently listed the following five things as the most difficult aspects of being an
elementary student:
1) Being called names
2) Getting along with people you donât like
3) Handling rumors
4) Wearing the right clothes
5) Feeling accepted by the group
But hereâs whatâs shocking: Isnât it interesting that NONE of these
stressors has anything to do with academic accomplishment? So, itâs quite obvious that at
the top of the list for your childâs future success is finding a way to help your child handle these
issues and teaching him to feel good about himself. This is why keeping your child in
Martial Arts is a great decision. âIt does not matter how slowly you go, so
long as you do not stop.â Confucius Make The Best Decision For Your Child?
Give your child the opportunity to grow and mature at Martial Arts. Responsibility, Self
Esteem, and Confidence is like anything else â it has to be learned through practice. Here we are
building leaders one black belt at a time. Many kids take sports outside of Martial Arts, and their
parents put manners, respect, and discipline they get from Martial Arts first. Very smart parents.
