If you ever found yourself in a confrontation that may lead to getting in a fight
, do you know how to get out of it? This could be a tough situation to be in but it could be in your best interest to walk away. Below are some tips below are especially useful to kids.
Your first best thing to do is avoid being somewhere that may put you at danger. If you find yourself in danger do your best to back off and get out, its not worth getting injured or even killed. If someone wants to fight you back away and find an exit to go.
Ignore any negative comments someone might make about you or your family, they are just trying to escalate the situation to get you angry. Dont argue over any petty things and make the problem worse. Act calm and reassuring while trying to explain to them that fighting would not be a good idea.
Dont feel like you are a loser for running away, there is no shame in that. Even if it is just one person present that is a threat dont try anything. Definitely if there is a group you need to get away the best you can.
When you are trying to calm down a situation keep your hands in a non aggressive position, but try to keep your hands naturally up so you can defend yourself if need be. At the same time be mentally aware in case your opponent does take a swing so you can at least block it..
