The #1 Reason Your Kid Should Play Youth Sports with Husband John
Manage episode 414127865 series 3519049
I’m not sure we’ve had more interest in any other topic than the one we’re going for today. We’re talking YOUTH SPORTS: the #1 reason your kids should play, how to NOT be one of those crazy sports parents, and whether youth sports have gone too far.
It’s a big topic to tackle (no pun intended), for sure. But one that we’re all very passionate about.
There’s a reason 70% of kids quit sports by the age of 13: the pressure, intense parents, and unrealistic expectations.
In fact, there’s a bit of tension in our own home about how far is too far. We’ll talk about how we’ve navigated it, answer some of your biggest questions, and explain why we believe every kid should play youth sports.
You’ll also enjoy hearing John’s take on all this, as he's coached college, high school, and AAU basketball and was a college basketball All-American (which is super hot).
Life Happens. Let’s Talk About It.
