Truth:

• The average man is 5' 8" tall and 197 lbs.
• An innocent, trusting, coercible, curious child thinks everyone is nice, and is easily persuaded. And even children who aren’t so compliant...
• The average man is approximately 4-5 times stronger than the average school-aged child.
• The young child cannot introduce weapons or manipulate joints.
• Even if a small child is properly trained in martial arts, that child will not be able to stop a full-grown man who is highly motivated.
• That's why it's important to arm kids with self defense techniques that can actually save them.
