(2) Sports Stressing Out Kids
Many parents are getting their children intensively involved in sports at a young age. As a result, injuries among children under 15 have increased dramatically. Injuries that used to be seen only at the college or professional level are now common in grade-school students.
One problem is that young players often focus on a single sport and train all year round. Some sports trainers argue that such intense and specialized physical activity puts children at greater risk of injury.
High expectations from parents may also cause emotional stress for children. This is especially true when parents become too involved in their children’s athletic careers.
Pushing children too hard may take away the traditional benefits of sports for kids, such as having fun and learning teamwork skills. Children’s overall well-being should always be more important than their parents’ desire for them to reach the top.
----------
The number of young children who suffer from injuries due to playing sports has risen significantly. This is because young athletes specialize in one sport at an early age and train themselves throughout the year. In addition, children feel a lot of stress because their parents expect them to work hard, which takes away overal benefits for children to play sports. [ 60 words ]
