No way on earth do I put my hands on a kid. Never, ever, ever.

I could get injured, the kid could get injured. No way...I would never even consider it.

What's a video camera have to do with this, anyway? Are you implying the risk of a lawsuit? It's not going to be successful.

These two posts are spot on.

Step back and take numbers - either the ones on the field or the ones left on the bench. Eject the offenders and go from there. Nothing good comes from touching a kid in a fight.
