Arteta should be working on getting this Emegha guy from Chelsea. From the glimpse of what I saw of him yesterday, he looks like a player with serious potential.

One of the ways parents damage the lives of their teenagers.
As a parent,I know you mean well for your teenage son and daughter,but let me be honest with you :Some of the things you're doing, though unintentional,are hurting your children. You may not realize it because,in your eyes,they seem okay or beneficial.But not everything that looks okay is actually right.
There are actions,words , decisions,and even mindsets that many parents carry that can damage their children's lives and future.
I see this every day as a Teen Coach.Teenagers constantly flood my inbox with painful stories and silent cries for understanding, connection,and change.
One of such things is constantly comparing them to other people's children.
Sometimes,you compare your teenager to others, hoping it will push them to try harder . But this can actually hurt their feelings.When they hear ,"Why can't you be more like......?" they may begin to feel that they are not good enough.This can make them sad, frustrated,angry ,or even depressed.
Every teenager is different.They have their own talents, abilities,and ways of learning.When you constantly compare them to others,it can make them feel that you do not see or appreciate who they are.
Instead of feeling motivated,they may lose confidence in themselves and stop trying because they believe they will never be as good nas someone else.
Comparing your teenager to others can also damage your relationship with them.They may begin to feel that you care more about what other people's children are achieving than their own effort.This can make them withdraw from you and stop sharing their thoughts and feelings because they fear being judged or compared again.
A better way to support your teenager is to focus on their personal growth.Appreciate their efforts ,not just their achievements. Talk about their goals and what they want to improve,rather than constantly reminding them of what someone else is doing.
Your teenager wants to feel loved and appreciated for who they are,not for how they compare to someone else.
PARENTAL PRESSURE AND COMPARISON IS ONE OF THE WAYS PARENTS DAMAGE THEIR CHILDREN'S LIVES.
We cannot raise teenagers in the 21st Century with mindset from the 70s,80s,or 90s.Times have changed.The pressures are different.The exposure is higher.The expectations are heavier.
Let's not fail this generation.Lets raise them right.Lets raise them strong.
