Best Defense and Kids

[brushmore]

I had the same experience as MB's friend had with his kids and the Best Defense.  My kids ages 10-14 really enjoy The Best Defense which is a little surprising to me because once I turn on the Outdoor Channel they usually leave the room pretty quickly out of boredom.  It really made a positive impact on them.  One example is that my wife and I always had trouble with them opening the front door with out checking when a visitor arrived.  The episode where Rob got beat with the hammer by the stranger at the door finally made them understand.    I was a little concerned at first the reenactments might freak them out but seeing the proper response makes the difference.   They also really got a kick out of shooting the books and refrigerators as well.
