Why Johnny Hates Sports

All across the country, a growing number of children are dropping out of organized sports--not because they don't like to play, but because the system they play in is failing them. Written by one of this country's leading advocates of youth sports, Why Johnny Hates Sports explains why many of the original goals of youth leagues have been affected by today's win-at-all-costs attitude. It then documents the negative physical and psychological impact that parents, coaches, and administrators can have on children, while providing effective solutions to each of the problems covered. Why Johnny Hates Sports is both an exposé of abuses and a call to arms. It clearly illustrates a serious problem that has plagued youth sports for too long. Most important, it provides practical answers that can alter this destructive course.

Over twenty years ago, Dr. Lauren Bradway discovered that all children use one of three distinct ways to grasp and remember information. Some learn best through sound and langua≥ others, through visual stimulation; and others, through touch. In this unique book, Dr. Bradway first shows you how to determine your child's inherent style. She then aids you in carefully selecting the toys, activities, and educational strategies that will help reinforce the talents your child was born with, and encourage those skills that come less easily.
