Resorting to punching someone is a "recipe for disaster" much more often than being smart enough to avoid a physical fight. How many people do you know that have been arrested for "not fighting"?
Where did I say adults needed to fight? This is about me saying teenage boys needed to know what it’s like to take a punch to the face. They don’t arrest for a fight in the cafeteria. At least not back when life wasn’t so soft.
Boys growth is stunted when you take away opportunities to be aggressive. As I said before. I’m not advocating bare knuckle brawling.... just saying that boys need to know what it’s like to take a punch. You wouldn’t understand that since you have no idea what it feels like.
