Ep. 148: Dr. John Delony: PART 2
In Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. John Delony, we explore the pressures of youth sports and their impact on families. Dr. Delony discusses how travel sports, elite expectations, and adult stress can affect kids’ mental health, why loving the game matters more than mastering it, and how to distinguish true shared experiences from unhealthy pressure. He also addresses challenges facing today’s teens, including social media and sports gambling, offering parents practical guidance to raise resilient, balanced children and keep sports a positive experience for the whole family.
