I wish we had video taped it!! My dh and the kids were watching a show on self-defense. It was on Crav MaGaw (sp?) which is the ultimate martial art used by the Isreali Army! After the show, my dh asked my son to stand up. He placed his hands around his neck gently and asked Chris (8 yrs old) what he would do if someone did this to him. My son grabbed my dh's hands pulled them away from his neck and simultaneously kicked him ...yeah! Right there!
You should have seen his face! He was mostly shocked, pleased with his son's attention to this instruction and in some amount of pain all at the same time! My dd was on the floor rolling with laughter.
After my dh regained his composure, he said..."I assume you both (dd and I) are going to post something about this..." In unison we both said..."Oh yeah!" ROFLOLOL
You know my dd did something similar when she was about a year old. Daddy was playing with her on the bed having her jump up and down on the bed as he held her. One time she decided to stick her feet straight out on the way down and kicked him! He doubled over in pain. At that moment Kelsey decided to stand up and smashed her hard head into his nose! He laughs about it now but that one was a double whammy!
The funny thing is that both are in Martial Arts. My son is a blue belt and my dd is a black belt. Here she is:
Do you have a similar story? Share it!

My theory is because we are dog gone happy it wasn't us!
If this had happened in our home back when our kids were growing up, and blogs existed, yes, I would be writing about it too. I would probably have asked my son and DH to do a reenactment for me while I had the video camera running. This way I could even get it on YouTube.
Do you think they would have obliged me?
