Anger Management Support Group
Anger management commonly refers to therapeutic techniques by which someone with excessive or uncontrollable anger can control or reduce their emotions. Typical examples include the use of deep breathing and meditation as a means to relaxation. Psychologists recommend a balanced approach, which both controls the emotion and allows it to express itself in a healthy way.

just wanting people's opinions...i put this on the parenting teen board too...
hi...my oldest is 15...he wants to fight this other kid that has been giving him a really hard time, bullying him and others and treating girls disrespectfully and disrespecting his girlfriend. i don't think my son should fight this time....
last year, he confronted a bully and ended up getting suspended for 10 days, for pushing him....and he got charges pressed on him for disorderly conduct....i watched the video the school had and really, the school and the police were way too harsh on him...
but, he just made the honor roll for the first time, he has tons of friends, is a complete social butterfly and makes good decisions, at least from what i can tell....i just don't think it's worth him fighting this guy this time....
what do you guys think?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
1. He is old enough to be able to articulate his feelings verbally and confront this in a logical manner. Give him guidence on who he should talk to that can help educe the other boys bullying in a non-direct way.
2. There is a rule of fighting I use to win every time. DON'T FIGHT. Walk away from it if you can. Even if you would win the fight, you still lost to your own aggresion. Now, rule number 2 is, DON'T LOOSE. If you must fight, and I believe all men get in at least one that is unavoidable, make sure that you win by using every dirty, rotten, low-down, cheap and dishonnorable trick you can to win. If you must fight, then you must be in grave danger.
3. This other boy will not be affected in anyway other than pain or scars, and most definately will not change his behaivior.
4. It might be construed that your son is a bully too, the definition being one who uses violence to control things. It's bully cowards that go after the weak. This other boy it seems is a bully coward.
5. Your son may loose or get jumped in retaliation. NOT A GOOD THING FOR ANYONE.
All that being said, Maybe he could challenge the boy to a boxing match at a local gym. there would be rules and referees and medical care on hand, and both children MUST explain there side of the issue before fighting. I think that he should not fight if at all possable, unless he must to defend himself or someone in danger.
