Recently surfacing in the news is the social commentary on the ebb and flow of parenting trends. “Narcissistic Parenting” as it is being called, is an affliction on constructive communities, and an embarrassing example of poor parenting behavior.
-
“This generation’s take on parenting—overbearing, enabling, overindulgent—is a pendulum swing in the opposite direction from the way they were parented,” says doctors in the field of psychiatry.
-
There is an impressive article titled “The Legacy of the Narcissistic Parent,” that states: “narcissism—whether intentional or non—interferes with healthy parenting, steals from your children’s experiences and takes an emotional toll that is often only repairable later on with a healthy dose of elbow grease and therapy.”
-
Media prevalence of this phenomenon is explained by its plain rise in everyday households—especially when it comes to youth sports. We live in a world where having a child who is a ‘winner’ can eclipse what’s best for the family.
-
Fear of becoming a self-involved parent is understandable. Parents occasionally cling to living vicariously through their children, seeing their success in athletics as a reflection of their own success in life. In an effort to avoid this, many parents will forsake their own involvement in their child’s sports teams. The truth is, we shouldn’t shy away from youth sports out of fear!
-
The simple solution is to learn some ways to be an awesome youth sports parent and we will discuss this is todays episode.
