Managing Emotions in Sports: Tears of Frustration and Sadness - How to Handle it Properly

Raising Pro Athletes

TEARS - Are YOU ready for oceans of tears?

Because there will be lots and lots of tears.

There will be lots of frustrations.

There'll be lots of sadness,

And there'll be a lot of screaming.

It's just how it goes.

If you pretend that it's not normal and it's not right, then you're keeping back your emotions and the emotions of your kids .And that's wrong way to manage the situation,

Because this is a fact, this will happen.

But it’s all about how you handle the situations.

If you tell them to shut up, hold it in, not get sad, or mad or frustrated, you are literally telling them not to deal with what just happened. How can you ever grow if you are too busy telling them to bottle it up or that just deal with it and move on.

It’s ok to mess up.
It’s ok, to lose your cool.

What’s NOT OK is for you, the coaches, or whomever to retaliate, to be on the defense when kids get like this.

Remember it’s not at all about you!!!
