There is such a thing as too much confidence, too. My younger brother was being harassed by a bully when he was in junior high, and he was sure he could handle him. He told the bully to meet him in the park one afternoon and they'd have it out. They both showed up, my brother put his fists up in approved Manly Art Of Self Defense fashion, and the other kid pulled a two-by-four out of his coat and beat my brother senseless.
Moral of the story -- sometimes the one who started it is going to finish it, whether your kid tries to stop him or not.
