Hi Patricia,
Thank you for your comments here and for giving you kids the gift of self defense with tae kwon do classes.

Hi Davina,
I can be a force or a farce — depends on my mood!

Hi Debbie,
Excellent job in pursuing your training to brown — it’s a tough road!

Hi Betsy,
I bill it as a parent/child teaching tool because I never want to hear another Amber Alert for a missing or kidnapped child, but yes “self defense” as I approach it is a huge and rich subject. That’s why I need a whole blog to help others discover more than a single book can cover.

Hi Davina – Lori has put a very special something together here. Although she is billing it as parent/child, I believe we can use it to beef up our own skill sets and maybe dispense with accommodating behaviors learned while we were in our growing years that are really detrimental to us now. Let us know what you think of the book! Thanks.

Hi Debbie – Now why doesn’t it surprise me that you studied martial arts! I know Lori’s views and attitudes will resonate with you. It’s an awesome book. Thank you.

Sounds like a great book. I have been involved in Karate in the past, was ready to receive my brown belt. We moved and have not found another dojo. The physical exercise alone is worth it, but the way you look at your surroundings, being aware of all things, all potential problems and threats, is completely necessary for everyone today. Applying those things to every aspect of your life is a great lesson. Thanks for sharing the book.

Hi Betsy. This is a fantastic review! I am looking forward to reading Lori’s book even more now. I didn’t know she used to be a volunteer firefighter as well. This woman is a force to be reckoned with.

Hi Patricia – You must’ve been writing your comment just as I was posting mine. Isn’t Lori’s blog great? I was telling my friend Mary, who has purchased the e-book, that Lori concocted the most fascinating description of an aggressive encounter, and how to break out of victim mode. Great stuff! Thanks.

Wow Betsy a really great job here of reviewing – no nonsense and right to the point. I have been enjoying reading Lori’s blog too.

I put my kids in tae kwon do very young and they all benefited from the experience and have been pleased to have that knowledge.

I did an internship in a County Jail in Grad. School and found the self defense material so important, and the prisoners taught me so much about the “relationship” of the crime.

Thank you both.

Hi Jannie,
I’m so glad you have your daughter in a martial art! Good for you! Tell her I wish her the best in her training and exams.

Hi Betsy,
I’m glad you see the book’s value and can express it so well. Thank you.

Hi Barbara,
Isn’t Betsy’s review wonderful? With bloggers like you both, we’ll get the word out! I’d love to see more people taking charge of their own safety and passing that skill on to their children.
