The parent was struggling to get their son to show respect and follow rules through punishment. Taking away privileges and grounding did not work, and the son would question the parent's authority. Enrolling the son in martial arts classes at Changing Lives Martial Arts helped turn things around. The classes taught personal responsibility, courtesy, and respect, helping the son develop self-respect and respect for others. The son now reflects a great attitude in his interactions with people, without needing to be hounded to continue classes. The parent is thankful for how the martial arts program helped their son.
