Good parenting - the nauseating cage fighting !!

Sure you watch your children, their habits, their likes and what they regularly do..
Are John Cena, Randy Orton, Edge, Mark Henry, Jack Swagger, Rey Mysterio, Zack Ryder, Big Show, Undertaker, Wade Barret – household names  and terms like Choke slam, tombstone pile driver, FU, RKO, Spears  – the ones you often hear from your kids…
Modern day parents have myriads of worries and stresses at workplace and at home and enough to lose sleep and energy.  Parenting is not unique to mankind alone.  Birds have a pattern in their nest construction, keeping of eggs etc., in trying to protect their young ones away from predators and environmental factors such as rain and sun.   some birds swallow carry food and regurgitate it for their young ones.   Mammals feed their young.  Presumably, the length of time that adults will care for their young is determined by several factors. In most cases, the longer the care, the better the chances that the young will survive to maturity.
Parenting is the process of promoting and supporting the physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development of a child from infancy to adulthood. Parents are often worried in ensuring that their kids grow up in the right way eschewing violence and other undesirable habits.  Kids once grown will be able to analyse and decide for themselves what is right and what is not !
There is something which the parents residing in Britain have thought worth of worrying.
World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) was an American mixed martial arts promotion. The events are regularly aired on many network televisions.  Its brutality is disturbing but more disturbing is the fact children  as young as  eight are filmed taking part in cage fighting... and it's  legal (based largely on a report from dailymail.co.uk)
The paper with concern mentions of disturbing footage that has emerged of a fight-night, youngsters who are not wearing head gear or padding are seen wrestling and slamming each other onto the canvas.    The report details that at one point one of the fighters appears to be crying, and qualified medical staff are rushed in to the ring to work out if they are fit enough to carry on.  The boys are not wearing padding or head gear as they grapple and slam each other into the canvas.  In the video shown, the young boy is seen  crying in the middle of a fight, and is then attended by medical experts who check if he can carry on with the bout.  Spectators are heard baying for the boys, as scantily clad women parade the fighting ground between rounds.

These reportedly were the images of an event at the Greenlands Labour Club in Preston, Lancashire, the tickets of which were completely sold out.  The message is whether one would like to wish the children to be  brought up and can it be a public spectacle to them bashing each other in such brutal manner ?
How can there be a defence that children have to learn to work through their aggression with discipline and control. Kids need to be taught sports, of competitiveness, of the ambition to win and to mentally be prepared for the losses that might occur… but would any good parent allow to such brutality getting developed in their children.  Children need to know martial arts and other forms of self defence – for bettering their physique and for developing a stronger mind – not for a brutal show down on the ring at a young age.
Boys need not play with teddy bears and need to have a strong grit and mental toughness but sure, this is not the way.
The names first mentioned are some of the names of the wrestlers of WWE – an American wrestling company, promoted under two brands known as Raw and Smackdown which have great following especially among children.

  2. She is convinced of her brother's innocence and then atlast completes
    legislation right after a long struggle for close to 18 years.
    Pettis was able to take Henderson's back a few times, but mostly
    used his dynamic striking to throw off Henderson especially in the
    final round when he landed the Showtime kick. As UFC
    grows in popularity so does the popularity of MMA and martial
    arts training.

  4. It really is rather outstanding when you notice that the process can with no trouble have 75,000 lotto gamblers
    attain a money prize or two in a four week interval.
    Something I should point out is that you will not be able to record high definition video like
    you are able to do with other cameras but you'll have the capacity to get decent
    quality of 30 frames per second. The opening to each UFC main
    card portion and the beginning of the pay-per-view is the best
    part whenever you watch a UFC event live, no matter where it happens to be held.

  5. Dan is strong, even for a 205lb fighter and Dan probably has the best wrestling
    in the UFC. Something I should point out is that

    Master Gracie said the fight was 6 rounds of 15 minutes and after the first 30 minutes he was thinking to himself,

    Being the name and face that the UFC had worked so long to prove
    that it was not, Kimbo Slice began making his name by beating up
    random non-trained fighters on the streets. Look for Michael Bisping "Ultimate Fighter" season 4 winner facing Elvis Sinosic in a match,
    seemingly designed to set up Bisping for a future title
    shot.

  8. the one thing that always visits me occurs when WWF [sic] will their own Several hours RAWs, and just like 20% from the target audience even now
    melodies within from 9 o'clock. Pettis was able to take Henderson's back a few times, but
    mostly used his dynamic striking to throw off Henderson especially in the final
    round when he landed the Showtime kick. He had a ton of fans prior to the UFC's
    Ultimate Fighter series where he coached and then came off
    as cocky and a bully.

  9. His high school team won State all 4 years he was in high
    school, and he went to State all 4 years. MMA gambling buffs have been rushing
    to find just the right betting line for what may be the most anticipated UFC
    Main Event of the year, ever since the field of for
    the approaching UFC 114 betting was announced. In fact, they all try hard to book the UFC Vancouver tickets
    well in advance so that there will not be any disappointment
    later on.

  10. The first was a flash knockout loss to Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, with that loss the belt changed hands and Quinton became the new light
    heavyweight champ. Master Gracie said the fight was 6 rounds of 15 minutes and after

  11. There are plenty of fighters with star power, but you see and hear more of White
    than any fighter in the company. A lot think that
    this isn't a big deal, Google is collecting the same information that it always has and
    it's just being used now to improve the users' experience.
    From the amazing new stadium built seemingly overnight, to
    the multiple championship belts on the line and the great match ups
    filling out the main card, UFC 112 should hold all MMA fans
    to their screens for the duration of the event.

    UFC light heavyweight division exciting over the next twelve months.

    Just the way near the friendly relationship seemed to
    be is different with all of their recollections, nevertheless while
    long-time coaching spouses beneath Greg Fitzgibbons,
    these folks were anyway familiar with one another.

    Personally I found this out the hard way on career mode with my created fighter that
    was pretty much like Chuck Liddell in terms of skill.
    Sanchez with Mike Pierce he went the full three rounds.
