Karate Mom

Heart-warming story? A Columbine averted? Or just a sad story about one pathetic 22-year-old "man"? (Hint: It's not the first two.)

A middle-aged Russian mum has become a black belt in karate to protect her 22-year-old son from bullies.

Valentina Ivanova, 50, felt forced into action after years of watching shy Danila getting bullied by local gangs in Moscow. . .

"I soon put what I had learnt into practice on one of the bullies and since then my son has had no trouble at all. . .".
