RE: ADSactly Sports - When Sports Stop Being Fun. Are We Creating "Trophy Kids"?
Most kids innocently enjoys and have passsion for sporting activities at their tender age, but the over expectation and enthusiasm of the parents towards the kids can reduce or totally burn out the passion in the affected kid for the particular sporting activitiy.
If only parents can realise that pressurising the kid towards achieving the required sucess or professional achievement will not achieve their expected goals but only make their kids demoralized,.
All too often, I see the negative impacts of pressuring your kids to excel at sports. Many of these kids walk away from the sport they before they can achieve their full potential because of the pressure. Let the kids have fun and be healthy. The rest will fallinto place when the time is right.
