#027 Competitive Child? How to help a sore loser
Do board games with your child end in arguments and frustration?
Is everything a race to see is first and best?
Is there a lot of competition between siblings and huge upset when someone gets more than the other?
Parents often ask me - is it better to teach my child to lose or should home be a safe haven where they always get to be the winner?
Well, the answer is a bit of both and it's all about focusing on the deeper feelings driving the competitive behaviour.
In this episode I talk about getting to the root cause of competitiveness and two tools that can support our children to be flexible and relaxed around competition.
