Kids, Competition and Performance

Erin Royer, MA Clinical Psychology, Child Development Specialist
About this episode

Competition is a part of everyday life, whether we like it or not. How do we foster a healthy sense of competition, help our kids see and understand where they excel and don't, and how to have a healthy approach and attitude towards self-improvement no matter where they fall? This episode covers all of this and the natural development of competition by age.
