did someone say the main goal was for a pin. I think the main goal for every kid is to get better each and every time they get on the mat. Maybe for a highschool kid who is wrestling for a team may want the pin more so than a young kid who wrestles in just tournaments. I have tried and tried to get my kid to do something other than a darn headlock. He insists its easier. I have a rule for him in practice is no headlocks from his feet. Next match here comes the headlock. I would like to see him use 2 to 3 different take downs if possible. This is part of getting better. But if I was to catch my kid toying with another wrestler I would kick his butt myself. Hopefully at 7 he doesnt even understand what toying with a kid means though.
