Tip, 4 year olds are murder. They gouge, spit, don't watch where their bony little knees go. I won't wrestle one of 'em without a solid advance payment and a cup. <G>

I once taught boxing to little kids at the YMCA in Kansas City and got a bruise on my cheekbone from a nine year old girl. I was explaining to the group how, if you practice throwing a left hook often enough, you won't fall down if you miss. This was fairly basic stuff. I made the mistake of turning my head right when my vicious opponent decided to practice some more. She didn't fall down because she didn't miss.

I could not really concoct a good cover story. "Melinda hit me when I wasn't looking" didn't sound all that manly.
