Whatever happened to when a kid wanted something bad enough we made em work for it!? Now adults want it more than the kids want it from themselves and do all the work and then wonder why kids fizzle out as the competition stiffens!
@TeamRHJAZ Guilty of this at times and kicking myself for it. Even random household chores I’d rather do so they’re done right and it’s not teaching anything. Your feed is full of wisdom!
@TeamRHJAZ Agree it’s worse. I think parents did used to do it but now some coaches are taking the bait.
@TeamRHJAZ Many parents have delusions of grandeur for their kid, not realizing how hard the best kids work at the game.
@TeamRHJAZ We've shifted from a meritocracy and overcoming obstacles to making sure our kids never have to struggle or face disappointment. That's not how you build fortitude or toughness or character.
@TeamRHJAZ Rewarded these kids with everything but work ethic
@TeamRHJAZ Transfer > transfer > transfer > transfer > eligibility up > didn’t graduate > 26/27, broke with no degree cuz all that mattered was mins and some short term NIL 💰 - never prioritized the academics cuz somebody told a kid he was a pro 😐
