Not if you do it right. It's like teaching a young kid both proper use of a firearm and strict safety discipline.
If done right, you teach a kid how to best use offensive and defensive tactics, so that they are always prepared should anything ever happen. Especially in the event that you raise them to use weapons correctly, and then place them into a competitive league as a means to let them use their skills in a healthy environment. This gives them both continued practice so they can keep their skills sharp, and a place for them to let out that energy.
Bullshit, growing up learning to fight doesn't make you aggressive at all. It's a skill that has to be trained to be any good at, why not start young. I train MMA all the time, did TKD and wrestling as a kid and none of it makes/made me aggressive. It actually takes a great deal of self control to just stop while sparring. It also teaches respect and discipline, that a lot of kids are lacking these days. My 3 year old son already knows how to pass guard and GNP if needed. He also knows that it's not ok to do to whoever only if he needs to and being 3 thats never. Unfortunately he doesn't have the attention span to start striking yet, but I plan on doing something similar when he gets a little older.
teach to control attitude to not be wreckless. you learn in martial arts to master self first. unfortunately, not everyone retains this part of training, hence domestic and street violence, sexual assult and other sickening crimes. drugs and alcohol add to wrecklessness. you wanna fight with someone who is drunk and knows martial arts? world is as sick as you want to view it, sicker if you put yourself in situations like knowing you could hurt someone if you are not careful with your attitude.
correlation and causation. keep it noted.

Pathetic. As a father here you boasting about your 3 year old son doing GNP. Quite frankly someone should slap the **** out of you and the dummy dad in the video. They are 3 and at that age they don't even understand right from wrong yet, let alone their abcs. As a 3 year old child if this little bruiser gets mad at another kid, no question he will hit. You don't teach 3 year olds fighting.
Then you'll be the dumbass father on TV crying he was a good kid when at the age of 13 someone puts a bullet in his cocky rearend. Its ridiculous and sad to see people all proud a 3 year old knows how to punch and fight. This reminds me of kid I knew who was taught by his dad how fight like this at a young age. He was cocky as hell. He supposedly accidentally drowned at the age of 14.
This is a sad video.

I see absolutely nothing wrong with that video
the dad is just teaching his kid how to box at a young age.

That or you're an idiot my son knows very well that he doesn't hit unless he has to. If some little kid decides to hit him, sure he'll beat his ass but he wont get hit again. And I don't really live in an area that my son getting shot is an issue so I'm not too worried about it and if we were to move to an area that it is an issue. He's been taught to only use what he's been taught for self defense and he does very well with it. He doesn't beat on kids for no reason hell 90% of the time he comes and tells me someone hit him before he does anything. Just because you have no self control and are so quick to pass judgement it's understandable that you don't understand this concept. Like someone said earlier it's similar to teaching a kid to shoot a gun, safely and properly, at a young age it isn't dangerous as long as you a good job teaching them.
That and it's awesome to watch his older cousins try to keep him in full guard, he managed to pass guard and full mount his 7 year old cousin and and him pinned down not able to do anything. So I can be confidant that if most anyone around his age tries to pick on him he can handle his own and not go out of his way to hurt the kid but make sure he's safe and if needed throw a couple punches.

I was boxing before I was 10; took a few years of karate in my mid teens, and I could count the fights I've been in on 1 hand. Age doesn't have a thing to do with it. If you teach a kid right, he'll be right barring a mental defect. Thinking that fight training leads to violence is the same kind of nonsense that says playing FPS games makes you violent. It's just a knee jerk reaction from the modern nancies who don't believe in personal responsibility, and look for institutional causes of personal problems.
imo, boxing is a dumb sport. fun to watch, but dumb as fuck. it causes life long brain damage.
why this dad would ever want to expose his son to that is beyond me.
with that said, there's nothing wrong with training your son for a sport. if it happens to be a sport where the point is to beat the other person up, part of the training is to make sure the trainee knows never to use it on anyone outside of the ring.
with THAT said, i don't know enough of the psychology of kids to determine whether or not it'd be a good idea to train a kid boxing and expect him not to use it at school in a fight.

I stopped reading right there. No need to read any further because that sums up your mentality and the ignorance you are breeding in your son.

obviously not all cases are the same. maybe this guy knows what hes doing and is teaching his kid properly. but sometimes the guy is a moron and the kid ends up fucked up in the head and he beats a kindergarten peer to death. can't pass judgement on every situation without some more knowledge. though you can argue that hardcore training like that at such a young age is messed up regardless
How so? What sort of ingorance am I breeding into him? To fight back, not get pushed around? If I got in a fight in school, which I never did, and I got my ass beat I sure as hell wouldn't try to fight that person again. There is nothing wrong with teaching a kid basic self defense.
