Trainees will be taught real world techniques that can give them a better chance for finding their children if they are lost in a crowded area. The course will cover a variety of scenarios that include possible child abduction, carjacking and acts of violence when children are present.

And I am really trying to get people who don't want to get into the gi's and do all the forms and spend years on a self-defense program learning and training. From what I have gotten in 2 seminars was amazing stuff.

It's really not possible to learn all you have to from seminars... You have to train hard to become proficient at self defence.
I've used this example before on another forum: My mother (a GP) went to a seminar on self defence against grabs, something doctors are fairly often subjected to by angry patients. She came home having learned some wonderful techniques, but had only practised with people her own size, so when I held her hand she had no idea how to deal with it. I'm not a big guy, but I could still resist her technique just by holding on. Had she practised against a range of opponents, she would have realised that you need body movement to shift a larger attacks, as strength alone will not work.
Obviously this isn't a criticism of the CDT system itself, which for all I know may be fantastic, but instead it is a comment on the people who honestly believe that after only a few hours training they will be able to deal with a violent aggressor. I've been training for about 10 years now, and I still wouldn't be comfortable in a serious combat situation, but I know that with my training my chances of getting hurt are less should a fight be unavoidable...

Okay..let me paraphrase..what you quoted. I suggested that CDT is a great NON-DEADLY FORCE training program for those NOT interested in taking years of MA training. I suggest you take a look at what CDT Training for Life has to offer first before making ANY judgements.
CDT I believe is something that the general public
- Can do without years of training.
- Works regardless of body size and type.
- Women and men can do alike.
- Is designed for those who do not feel the need for a FULL self defense training.
- Is designed for those that want to feel that "It is better to know something then not know anything and need it."
- Meets the level of the attack with a response just below.

CDT - Compliance Direction and Takedown. Our school is a certified training school for CDT. I currently am certified in the Compliances and Escorts.
I can tell you this is really good stuff in the course simple to learn and easy to train. The biggest thing that CDT talks about is meeting the amount of force with not the same amount but one level down.
Personal protection (YOU), Subject safety, (idiot attacking you or being aggressive), Full circle liability (because you touched me without my permmission even though I was trying to hurt you means I can sue!!)
I think that what these guys have here is one of the best programs around. And I am really trying to get people who don't want to get into the gi's and do all the forms and spend years on a self-defense program learning and training.
From what I have gotten in 2 seminars was amazing stuff. I unfortunately missed the "Stun & Run" lessons. Have to catch up on those.
I suggest to anyone looking to advance what they know of the MA and concerned about liability to really look into CDT training, I feel it will really change your outlook.
