The authors draw upon the advice of a diverse set of professional and Olympic athletes, fromto Shannon Miller, Julie Foudy to Jason Taylor, Chipper Jones to Sanya-Richards Ross, with the athletes sharing stories about how they were raised and, in many cases, how they are raising their own kids. These men and women, representing varying ages, family structures, socio-economic circumstances, ethnicities and sports eras, come together in a book with universal themes and guiding principles.
Those athletes werent always confident stars, the authors write. Many doubted themselves. Many struggled to find, or follow role models. Many thought about giving up. Many did, if only briefly. Still, there is much to be learned not only from their resilience, but also from their mentors methods of support.
Through , parents will learn what can ignite inspiration and foster participation, practice and progress, and which methods can create frustration and dejection. They will learn the difference a supportive adult can make by showing up, showing interest and showing restraint.
