Episode 2845: Adina Soclof reminds us that losing isn't a failure, it’s an essential part of growth. By focusing on listening with empathy rather than fixing our kids’ frustrations, we help them build resilience, emotional awareness, and problem-solving skills they’ll carry far beyond the playing field. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://parentingsimply.com/baseball-season/ Quotes to ponder: "It is not whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game." "Losing is not necessarily a bad thing. It is a good thing to remember when we watch our kids play sports." "We can listen to our kid’s complaints without getting emotionally involved."
