SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT…

So why do 70 percent of kids quit organized sports at 13 and what can we do about it?

I would argue that most kids leave because we haven’t given them a way to stay. And perhaps more importantly, until we dismantle the parenting culture that emphasizes achievement and success over healthy, happy kids, we don’t stand a chance of solving this problem.
