About this listen
This week, Scott and Jamie dig into one of the hardest questions in youth sports: how much is too much when it comes to pushing your kid? From the emotional landmines of summer training to the quiet signs a player might be over it, this episode gets real about what happens when a parent’s passion starts to outweigh the player’s.
In this episode:
- The gut-check moment when your kid wants to quit mid-session
- Why “taking a break” feels harder for parents than players
- The fine line between motivation and meltdown
- How gear, group chats, and summer plans all fuel the pressure
Plus: A look at long drives, practice walk-offs, and why it might be time to stop “wanting it more.”
If you’ve ever wondered whether your push is still productive or just exhausting - this one’s for you.
