Gosh those kids kick really really hard

DS did compete in karate when he was 7, but they would have both been disqualified for hitting that hard!

i saw about 5 minutes of a little girl being shouted at to get in teh ring and fight, whilst she cried her little heart out. she clearly didn't want to do it but didn't want to disapoint her father.

All the parents involved should be ashamed of themselves, i find it disgusting.

themoon66 · 24/04/2008 21:43

Full contact like that must be a foul surely?

nervousal · 24/04/2008 21:45

agree that its disgusting. We're not allowed to train dogs to fight, but we can train kids to? Something really not right there (oh - and I don't WANT to be allowed to train dogs to fight by the way!!!)

LittleMissBliss · 24/04/2008 21:47

BiancaCastafiore · 24/04/2008 21:49

I felt ill just watching the trailers - daren't watch the programme.

goblinvalley · 24/04/2008 21:52

This is truly disgusting - what kind of people go to see little kids fighting ?

theUrbanNixie · 24/04/2008 21:52

"Ring tickets are £35 a head but the children don't get paid."

what is wring with these people?

theUrbanNixie · 24/04/2008 21:52

wrong, even

nervousal · 24/04/2008 21:53

Jesus! that is absolutely disgraceful!!! "it's safe- they're not going to fall out of the ring"???

nervousal · 24/04/2008 21:55

Good God - the parents are complaining that kicks to the head aren't allowed??

you aren't allowed (quite rightly) to physically chastise your child unreasonably - but you're allowed to train them and urge them on to kick hell out of another child????

FAQ · 24/04/2008 21:56

well I suppose at least Connors parents insist on head protection

Have just turned over. Words fail me.

moodlumthehoodlum · 24/04/2008 21:57

This is extreme. I almost can't watch. Those children should be taken away from their parents.

LittleMissBliss · 24/04/2008 21:58

I just can't stand all the shouting and screaming at the kids. telling them thier crap. It's awful.

having said that - dh was doing judo at about 7 or 8, but there's no direct strikes in judo. it's locks and holds and things.

there is no way on god's green earth i would allow ds to do this. not. a. chance.

My son (10yrs) went to our local wrestling club until recently. At first he really enjoyed it. They teach proper Olympic style wrestling not the rubbish on the tv.

They really put the kids through their paces at first with the warming up session which my son enjoyed. He is a little bit overweight and the knob man who runs the club repeatedly announced which child was overweight and how they would never be able to wrestle because you have to be skinny?????

Eventually, on our last night, my son stood up and said 'I'm not coming back here again, you make people feel sad if they are heavy and the skinny lads here are nutters who want to wrestle like on the telly.'

The parents at the wrestling are equally as bad as those on the tv programme - living their dreams through their kids.

Vulgar · 24/04/2008 22:09

Your son is a brave lad Shabster. Good for him. Hope he finds a sport that is more accomodating.

This programme made me feel sick.

maidamess · 24/04/2008 22:12

It made me feel sick too. I think its child abuse. Wasn't someone prosecuted recently for videoing their fighting and putting it on youtube? How is this any different?

mum2sons · 24/04/2008 22:15

Have just watched in disbelief. The parents are thugs trying to bring up little thugs. It broke my heart to see those little boys. Sick.
Did anyone see that pitbull or at least it looked like a pitbull?

ladytophamhatt · 24/04/2008 22:42

Just watch this and had to come on her a see what you were all saying.

Call me asnob but all I could say was how vile and repulsive they all were.

I'm speechless about the fighting but the parents were just revolting.

jellybeans · 24/04/2008 22:46

Those parents are truly sick. Poor kids.
