After my divorce both of my boys were very angry. Expressing their feelings was no problem. Arguing, hitting one another, verbal abuse, skipping school. I decided it was time to focus their energies in a positive way. Building their self esteem, and character. Mr Albertson,Sexton & Quinn helped them understand the meaning of respect. They provided a positive male role model they couldn't get from their dad. I was told by the boys their dad hit & yelled at them abusively while I was at work. Life doesn't always give you what you want. However, I know National Karate helped me produce 2 productive citizens. One an EMT instructor who lives in Montana & I see frequently.The second a Captain in the US Army, who is married and has two children. Living in Louisiana last time I talked to his Uncle. We haven't spoke since 2004, but I know he continues to live the values learned at National Karate. He is a member of our military and will be for life. Just like his 2 grandfathers. So Mr. Albertson, Sexton, Quinn thank-you I'll be forever grateful for the positive impact you have had on MY live and that of my children and theirs as they will carry it on. read more
