Episode 45: Am I Pushing My Child Too Hard… Or Not Enough?
from The FX Factor
It's one of the hardest questions every sporting parent asks.Should I push them to train? Should I back off? Am I helping them grow, or am I putting too much pressure on them?In this episode of The FX Factor, Kelly draws on nearly 30 years of coaching experience, combined with current sports psychology research, to explore why there is no one-size-fits-all answer.You'll discover why some young athletes need accountability, while others need encouragement. Why motivation can't be forced. Why confidence isn't built by avoiding challenges. And why comparing your child—to teammates, social media or even their own siblings—can lead you further away from the answer you're searching for.Because the best parents don't have all the answers.They simply learn to read their child better than anyone else.
