Dr. Thurber @drchristhurber & Dr. Weisinger @Pressuretweets. Our book, The Unlikely Art of Parental Pressure focuses on the effects of parental pressure on kids
Tell your teens that a low grade, losing the school election, or not making the sports team is not the end of the world. Lower the pressure by teaching your teens that success is a process & setbacks are part of the game! #Parentingtips#Parenting#ParentalPressure

Dear Parents,
Please teach your children how to lose. They will not always win, and need to learn how to deal with disappointment.
Thank you,
A tired teacher
Check out Dr. Weisinger's guest feature on this week's episode of Parenting Peak Performers @SportPsychWorks! He discusses the pressure from parents of athletes and how it differs from supportive parenting. #Parentingtips#ParentalPressure#ParentPressures

Parents only tell their success stories to children rather than their challenges . Every success story is backed by some failures & it needs to be told to children building confidence in kids if they come to know how you overcame all the challenges leading to success.

Academia is filled with failure, rejection, and all sorts of other nonsense. One of the most important pieces of advice I've received is to build a network of people who are ambitious but authentic, celebrate together in your successes, and support each other in your struggles.
Go listen to @drchristhurber on @donttellmepod's latest episode! He explains how parents can best support their children to reach their goals and continue on a path to success. #Parentingtips#ParentalPressure#ParentPressures#Parenting
