He shot around, slapped it on, got his war face on, and her face turned purple so fast she forgot to tap. I had to shout out "Tap!" to him so he'd let go before she went out.
Proud day for dad!

i just read this, and have to say that made my day...that is hilarious!

Freakin awesome. My son is finally getting big enough to get his arms around my neck, he'll be at it before long. I just have to get him to not be afraid to hurt someone. When he's at kudo he doesn't like to spar with kids smaller than him and boy, do these Japanese kids kick the **** out of him because of it! Lol. Right now I just keep him with basic passes and sweeps. I want him versed in control before I get too into offense. Sorry to go off on a tangent....great vid!

I agree that the guy who was worried is just being a *****.

I like to use pictures like this to reassure me that letting kids practice at my BJJ school does not make us any closer to a mcdojo. Oh, that and the 13 year old I rolled with today that would so totally tap the **** out of me if I wasn't so much bigger than him. I do everything I can to not win by outmuscling when there's a huge size difference with people, but I think it's a body type thing, where he can't quite get around my neck..

BJJ black belt by the time he can drink: that's just good parenting.
