Rousey experienced great tragedy during her childhood. While sledding as a family, Ron had an accident that led to him breaking his back. The injury led on to him discovering a disorder in his blood that would prevent him from being able to heal correctly.

Ron found the accident would leave him paralyzed from the waist down, which would later lead to him being a quadriplegic during the few short years he was given left. Ronda Rousey was just 8 years old when her father took his life.

Rousey had already struggled with her speech until she was 6 years old, due to her problematic birth, and began to struggle even further after trying to cope with recent events.

She started to find it difficult during her classes and was taken out of mainstream school where she could be homeschooled for a lot of her elementary school and high school education. Her mother came up with a solution to help her daughter overcome her difficulties, and would lead her to the sport she is so famous for now!
