If our children learned the art of self defense, and self cisiciline, would they get better marks at school, be picked on less, have more confidence?
Could this bring truency, and crime down?
Would this be worth the extra money to schools?

I love how Asian cultures are disoplined and obedient. I wish we could follow more of what they do. They always seem so nice and pleasant.

I don't think so. Children would be taught that violence is a natural attribute and that it may be used at all times. You will have Columbine scenes all over the State and the US would be back in the Wild West in no time.
Self discipline is a good thing, same with martial arts but it should remain a free choice and not some obligatory part of the school program. I would change the weapon lobby in the US, less gun possession would surely help bringing crime rates down, if you ask me. The American Rifle Association is one of the most powerful lobbies in the US.

I think if they could learn to spell they would have a better chance understanding morals, ethics and the underlying principles of martial arts as well then they could work at self discipline instead of self cisiciline......

It would either help boost their self confidence or create fights.
