Podcast – Parenting Kids in Athletics with Chalene and Bret | CarSmart Edition

episode
Description

Bret Johnson, my husband, is an important part of a legacy in local sports. In this CarSmart episode, Bret gets personal as he shares how his childhood experiences shaped how we parented our sports-involved kids. Listen, as we talk about our best practices for raising children who participate in athletics!

 

You’ll also find…

  • How important it is, as a parent, to be mindful of your child’s need to please you
  • Bret’s rules, including: not talking with our kid’s about their games right after they’re over and how you ONLY coach during your child’s game — but not after
  • Why you should let your child decide which physical activity they want to pursue
  • Why you should never express disappointment in your child’s ability
  • The average length of a career in sports
  • Why you shouldn’t live through or for your kids
