Young Athletes' Identities Shouldn't be Just About Sports

  • Resumen

  • Sports kids face a number of challenges when their identity is wrapped up in sports, said Dr. Becca Wallace, a clinical pediatric psychologist at Children's Hospital in New Orleans.

    When they get overly involved in sports, their identity becomes closely tied to being athletes.

    If they're injured or have to stop playing sports, it can be devastating for young athletes whose identity is too tied to sports, she said. She suggests that parents help young athletes create more balance in their lives.
