I was raised very pacifist as a Mormon kid. By the time my second fight in school came around, I had lost my faith and my desire to remain non violent when the situation called for response. Had no idea how to actually fight but got a lucky hit on the guy and no one messed with me anymore cuz I broke his jaw.
The toughest lessons are those we learn ourselves.
