  • Are Sports Bad for Kids?

  • People think children should play sports.

  • Sports are fun and children stay healthy while playing with others.

  • However, playing sports can have negative effects on children.

  • It may produce feelings of poor self-esteem or aggressive behavior in some children.

  • According to research on kids and sports,...

  • ...40 million kids play sports in the US.

  • Of these, 18 million say they have been yelled at or called names while playing sports.

  • This leaves many children with a bad impression of sports.

  • They think sports are just too aggressive.

  • Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches,...

  • ...are the main cause of too much aggression in children's sports.

  • They believe children copy aggressive adult behavior.

  • This behavior is then further reinforced through both positive and negative feedback.

  • Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them.

  • Often these adults behave aggressively themselves,...

  • ...sending children the message that winning is everything.

  • At children's sporting events, parents may yell insults at other players or cheer when their child behaves aggressively.

  • As well, children may be taught that hurting other players is acceptable...

  • ...or they may be pushed to continue playing even when they are injured.

  • In addition, the media makes violence seem exciting.

  • Children watch adult sports games and see violent behavior replayed over and over on television.

  • As a society, we really need to face up to this problem and do something about it.

  • Parents and coaches should act as better examples for children.

  • They also need to teach children better values.

  • They should teach children to enjoy themselves whether they win or not.

  • It is not necessary to knock yourself out to enjoy sports.

  • Winning is not everything.

  • In addition, children should not be allowed to continue to play when they are injured.

  • Sending a child with an injury into a game gives the child the message that health is not as important as winning.

  • If we make some basic changes, children might learn to enjoy sports again.

      Is the following message true?
      "Sending a child with an injury into a game gives the child the message that health is not as important as winning"
      It does not make sense to me!
