I am a 5th Degree Tae Kwon Do Master, and you have every right to issue any belt and train your child any way you see fit... True, there will likely be some credibility issues later on if your son wishes to be recognized with an official TKD rank in another school or organization. Still, if your child's training with you is strong and substantive, he will be, most likely, "re-ranked" by any reasonable instructor. On the other hand, even if he must begin at white belt again if he seeks another teacher, or even another martial art completely, that should really not matter... Ideally, we are all more concerned with authentic movement and training and not just rank. Good luck and let me know how it goes... Peace to you... David M.
