Is this a good thing for kids?
Wrestling and learning to wrestling is one thing. Cage fighting kids is another. And this statement is just funny and dumb all at the same time.

I don't see anything wrong with that, most kids play and fight much harder in the backyard.
I rather enjoyed the ring gal. |

Well, ring gal sure, but does this type of fighting good? No pads or any protection.

You could say it's better without pads, kids learn to strike without hurting themselves and don't keep fighting when they are hurt.
Well, that's at least how it's supposed to work

Well No beating the crap out of each other is not good for kids, but hell if thats what they wanna do - then that is their choice.
That Michelle Anderson Quote is one of the dumbest statments ever though. you can justify anything with that sort of context, just compare it to somnething worse so it seems acceptable.... UNGH!!!  She makes it seem like the choice is cage fighting or gangs, as if there is no other alternative lifestyle, come on.... Last edited by JU_88; 09-21-11 at 12:09 PM. |

Now that's a good idea! Kids can settle playground disputes in that cage! It would be like Thunderdome!!

"Michelle Anderson, owner of Greenlands Labour Club, who attended the event, defended the spectacle, saying: 'There was nothing wrong with it. The kids were there to shoot heroin, they have shot heroin before. The parents were there. Would people rather these kids were out on the streets with homeless junkies and dirty needles?'" Well as long as the parents are there. Heaven knows no parents on earth have ever allowed or encouraged (much less coerced, subtly or otherwise) a kid to do something foolish and/or potentially harmful for their own selfish and immature reasons. |

300. Spartan training. Some parents have taken it too far.

I've an open mind on the matter...but parents are not always right.

 Some as immature or less mature than their children. Grown people do dumb things all the time. One would hope the gown up is capable in deciphering right from wrong were a child will have much more difficulty deciphering specifically if old mom/dad are cheering him on!
