What Parents Should Say as Their Kids Perform

I was made aware of a blog a while back after having conversation with a number of administrators and came across a recent article that is kind of in the same theme of some that I have written lately.  One of the things that I really believe is lacking in our student body is strong leadership.  We have discussed this for a few years and have come to the point where we have talked enough and we need to do something.  While subscribing to a blog isn't a real impressive step and most likely is in itself not going to make a difference in student leadership, we need resources, and the article I am sharing with you today is one such resource.  Dr. Tim Elmore is the author of the blog and is a "leading authority on how to understand the next generation and prepare tomorrow's leaders today."  A best-selling author, he is also an international speaker and president of Growing Leaders, a nonprofit organization that helps "develop emerging leaders under the philosophy that each child is born with leadership qualities."  This blog article is one that I have pulled that I think paints a pretty good picture for parents and their role with their child.  It is relative to sports, but the message is the same for all aspects of school and a child's life.
