A new organization developed by bodyguards, martial arts Masters, teachers and child safety experts is training children to resolve conflicts without fighting.
On the heels of recent media reports of bullying, cyber bullying related teen suicide, and abuse, some parents are taking steps to prepare their children for the dangers they face in school and life.
How to cross a street, the 911 emergency/fire safety system, how to swim, parents are now adding sexual abuse prevention, self-defense from depression, obesity, diabetes and BULLYING.
They are doing this through USA Martial Arts in Phoenix Arizona.
BULLYING FACTS:
- Bullying is the most common form of violence in American society according to the National Association of School Psychologists.
- Bullying affects 15 to 30 percent of students as either bullying child or the targets of bullying
- Studies have shown that adults who were bullied as children have a much higher level of depression and lower self-esteem than those who were not.
