Everyone wants to do right by their kids. Sometimes, however, parents can fall flat. And sometimes, you might be making your kid absolutely miserable without even knowing it.
This mentality may work for youth sports, but it’s not a good long-term lesson to teach children. Everyone should be instilled with a healthy amount of competition.
Teaching kids that there are winners and losers in life will help them become ambitious, and celebrating their accomplishments will help build up their sense of self-worth.
