I think I cannot handle the full kicks as I have thin legs, is shifting to boxing a good idea instead of kick boxing?
Stick with it for a couple of months, or talk first to your instructor and tell him your concerns. If I’m the instructor, i would watch over my new students esp. the kicking part, as they are students who CAN REALLY kick , and that could cause knee injury to the newbie. If the instructor is not concerned with you or to the new students, then look for another school, but continue with KB.
no…boxing is pointless on its own these days…if you take boxing then take something like jiu-jitsu along with it….

Stick with it ,winners never quit and quiters never win, if you want why not cross train in both to become a well rounded striker ,with the powerful kicks of a kickboxer but the precision and foot work of a boxer ,the knockout punches of a regular boxer and the swift backfists of a kickboxer.
However if its becuase your experiencing any pain i would consult with a physician,if its a flexibility problem stretch more,if its a distance problem dont go for head kicks and focus on the body, these are just a few suggestions

That’s something you’ll have to figure out for yourself.
Boxing is not useless as the uneducated person said, it is very dangerous.
If you enjoy kick boxing however, stick with it, you can always do leg exercises to build muscles.

I like boxing better, but then I box.
I also value the nerves in my legs.
