He helped train mental health professionals after the Jonesboro school massacre, and he was also involved in counseling or court cases in the aftermath of the Paducah, Springfield, Littleton and Nickel Mines Amish school massacres. We are so honored to work with Col. Grossman because he is a multi-dimensional warrior in many ways. His seminal, groundbreaking, and industry-changing books on combat and killing simply revolutionized the space when they were published. He has been one man who has forever changed the way we look at the act of killing and heavily impacted our understanding of what our beings go through during active combat. Beyond all of these things, he has also written books in many different related spaces on topics such as violent video games and raising a generation to kill and also spiritual warfare. He has truly cemented the idea of being a sheepdog and a protector of the flock into the cultures of our world today. As our mission is to make the world a safer place by helping good people become more dangerous, it is a genuine honor and privilege to align with a man who has made such monumental contributions in the exact same mission for many decades now. In this episode we cover many different strategies for protection ranging from soft skills to martial arts and firearms. I find it interesting that both of us love the hard skills but cannot stress enough the importance of various soft skills to truly be the skill sets that actually keep people safe most of the time. There is something in this interview for everyone… Enjoy! Protector by nature and by trade Byron For more, visit https://www.grossmanacademy.com/

When we think of our kids being well-groomed, we think of issues tending to physical hygiene and dress; some things at least parents have some control over. Or to help our kids gain control over. There is grooming going on with our kids today that many of them, or their parents, are not even aware of. It's the grooming that builds appetites in our kids; violent and sexual appetites built by the constant consumption of violent and sexually explicit video games, movies, and other forms of entertainment. It's said, “you are what you eat.” Well, what we consume with our eyes and our ears shapes what we become too, and in ways you would never have imagined. Don't think that your inability to ever imagine your child to become a violent killer or sexual pervert makes this ugly possibility an impossibility. Besides, how far down that path are you willing to go as a parent, and how do you know when you've crossed the point of no return? Violent tendencies and sexual perversion do creep up incrementally. Grooming our kids for love and not violence - this is what License to Parent with special Guest Lieutenant Colonel Dave Grossman discuss today. Lt. Col. Dave Grossman, currently the Director of the Killology Research Group. He is also a retired US Army Ranger, a paratrooper, and a former West Point Psychology Professor. He has a Black Belt in Hojutsu, the martial art of the firearm, and has been inducted into the USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame. It's no wonder he is an expert speaker and author and one of our nation's leading trainers for military, law enforcement, mental health providers, and school safety organizations. Love & Not Violence Episode Highlights: The need to protect our children from the corrosive effects of culture. Regardless of a moral or industry code, the media masses do not care how kids are impacted. Assassination Generation - book by Col. Grossman on how A young person's obsession with video games that teach to kill increases their overall tendency to commit violent acts. Increase in sleep deprivation, drug overdose, more violence and murders, suicides, and sex trafficking - What... the problem is the police?

One of the things we don’t do is listen more to the wisemen in our lives. There are grandparents, and uncles that have accumulated a wealth of knowledge over their lifetimes. Podcasting is an excellent way to capture that wisdom. It’s not easy because not everything they say is for everybody. And not everything they say is gold. But on this weeks episode I have a guest that is golden. We spoke for awhile and when he got comfortable he dropped some nuggets. I didn’t know him personally before this episode. I have heard of him for decades. He is going to talk about the keys to success-Sleep. He is going to talk about using caffeine effectively, how to sleep better, about church security, the Second Amendment, gun rights, the role and title of a Sheepdog, about self discipline and resilience. This grandfather is going to give some parenting 101 advice. And he is even going to talk about faith. And the importance of it. Listen to this sage speaks. You are going to thank me for this episode. My guest is retired U.S. Army Lt. Col David Grossman. Dave has five patents to his name, has published four novels, two children’s’ books, and six non-fiction books to include his “perennial bestseller” On Killing (with over half a million copies sold).Since his retirement from the US Army in 1998, he has been on the road almost 300 days a year, for over 19 years, as one of our nation’s leading trainers for military, law enforcement, mental health providers, and school safety organizations. He is a US Army Ranger, a paratrooper, and a former West Point Psychology Professor. He has a Black Belt in Hojutsu, the martial art of the firearm, and has been inducted into the USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame. https://amzn.to/2Ujl9Zy https://amzn.to/2y8YUNe

I asked a group of our SHA kids how many had armed guards in their schools. About 75%—80% of their hands went up. Several more knew a school near them where a shooting had happened; and, one student had a shooting take place in the very school she attended. I can jog to a school from where we sit right now that had a shooting just a couple of years ago. And, in the late 90s, I went to church with a family, who's kid would play all kinds of crazy music in our church parking lot after almost every service. About a year later this kid went on a shooting rampage in our small town, killing at least one person, shooting it out with police and then leading a police-chase all the way to the Florida line--about a 300-mile trek. And, when they caught him, I was watching him being arrested by Florida police on my TV screen in little Martin, GA. Col.

The Missing Link in Teen Violence Col. Dave Grossman recently released a book entitled Assassination Generation, which he presented to the President and Senators during a meeting following the Parkland shooting. He also has several other books, including New York Best Sellers that have yet to have a single review. So why is that? The media certainly filters out the information that doesn't match with their own agenda. One thing they are all invested in is that anything harmful can come through media. The violent stories, imagery and video games are said to have no impact on our society. The commercials are worth billions of dollars! But Psalms 11 says God hates lovers of violence. Very rarely does the Bible discuss God hating. We need to take that very seriously. If we as parents love violent tv shows and movies, how do we train our children to love the things that God loves? Who do we really worship and who have we given our children to? Another adverse effect that we aren't discussing as a culture is sleep deprivation. It's an epidemic across our entire civilization. In fact, one of the results of sleep deprivation can include schizophrenic episodes. Hallucinations can also occur after three days without sleep. Sleep deprivation appears to be the greatest predictor of suicide in our kids. In the military, suicides occur due to sleep deprivation, not combat. A non-combat vet is just as likely to commit suicide as a combat vet. Sleep deprivation is the missing link. In fact, a sleep-deprived person can be up to 5 times more likely to take their life. 18 hours without sleep and your impaired judgment are equal to .08 legally drunk. 24 hours your impaired judgment is equal to .10 legally drunk. Two nights without sleep and you are psychotic. When you send your kid to bed at night, take their cell phones! No laptop in their room. When they go to their bedroom they need to sleep. The texts and the images that are sent to your child's phone at all hours can't just be “turned off” in their minds if the phone is in the room. They will be up all hours of the night trying to defend themselves, finding someone to stand with them. If we as parents can't ignore that text message in the middle of the night, how do we expect our kids to? I spoke to a parent who had a daughter, straight-A student and very smart who told him “you can trust me to have my phone.” So he did. Not long after, his daughter committed suicide.

"We have learned more about the psychology and physiology of combat in the last 50 years than in the previous 5,000 years put together." - LT. COL. Dave Grossman I've known Dave Grossman for decades. From long before 9-11. A mutual passion for studying violence, specifically, the link between physiology and psychology, cemented our friendship. Dave was the first person to really study it in a scholarly fashion and has authored several books on the subject. We discuss so many things on this call from violence to sleeping habits, his knowledge-base is astounding. Listening to Dave is always thought-provoking. Enjoy this talk.
