Well...today I had a family BBQ... and my cousin who is around my age ( he is 25 im 22 ) got mad...
We were wrestling in a kiddy, friendly way on the grass in the yard after the meal ( he has 0 technique)...and I took him down with a scissor take down....He said....创I could smash your head if you try to do that again 创... then.... I took him down again with a double leg.......and he was very angry...
I was playing...he was not. I had to to mount him.. and he tried to hit me again ( of course he couldnt)... He was screaming like a wild ape . I stayed in the mount position...and said 创well...hit me if you want 创...he got worst... He started shouting 创 who do you think you are , god ??? 创
It was sad....I released him when other members of the family including my dad asked me to stop.... I was laughing...
I did not hurt him of course , and the idea ( of course ) never came to mi mind....
Was I wrong ? .... I know....those 创friendly fights 创 are not good...

It sounds like things just got out of hand. I have had fights like this in the past with my brothers. It really isn't a big deal, I don't think. Unless you and your cousin don't really like each other. I would just let it be for a while.

He needs discipline.

Well...this is not the first time it happens.... We are like brothers and grew up in being neighbors ....
Things like this have happened to me , with some friends too. All of them are not M. artists either contact sport guys....
People who is not used to sparr maybe do not know the difference between playing/sparring and real violence...and tend to get mad easily when feel that they are 创losing 创. Any guy with a MA background and common sense...would be at ease.
I remember once , playing with one friend ... I grabbed him with a kimura , but using little power...he got angry and punched me in the face.... It didnt hurt cuz he can not punch that hard....but we were grappling , not in NHB fight.... He did not understand the difference... I could have his arm broken anyway....

Indeed.... He should learn to fight , and understand what sparring is...

Experienced martial artists are much more comfortable with these situations, as well as having a lowered ego.
Sometimes we forget how far we have come in our training, situations like these are good reminders.
