As we all know, the world of youth sports today can sometimes be described as sheer chaos for some families. The frequent travel for competitions, the never-ending quest to keep up with the Joneses, the fear of missing out on developing your child if you don’t get them signed up in preschool for sports camps and skill development, numerous practices, the narrative that you must be involved year-round to be better.

As a sport medicine physician, I stress with families we want sports to be fun, not painful, especially when talking with our pre high school aged athletes. But how can parents support kids without being that parent that everyone sees riding their kid for their mistakes and living their sports life vicariously through their kids. Today on the podcast, we have a sports parent who created a website that’s a valuable resource for parents and especially for every sports medicine professional who works with kids to know about.
