Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Guide for parents.
Review: I believe that this book could not have come at a better time. In this day and age it is not unusual for teenagers to sign multi-million dollar contracts for basketball and hockey. Unfortunately, for every Tiger Woods, Martina Hingis, and Kobe Byrant, there are many more unnamed people when pushed to the limits just burned out.

Dr. Kuchenbecker' book reminds everyone that the primary role of sports is not to make millions of dollars and become famous, it is to have fun.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: negative to coaches
Review: I noticed that most references to coaches were in a negative way and I stopped reading the book after page 120. While I agree with alot of what was said I felt it was to anti-coach.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: We all have a lot to learn..............
Review: If you need a reference book about raising children with a positive self-image, then this book is a must read. On or off the playing field the values are the same. I've been involved in athletics for nealy 30 years, as a mother, coach, participant, and as as athletic director at a local Community college. I have witnessed poor behavior by all involved. This wonderfully written book will help get you through even the most trying times. It has incrediable advice, wonderful suggestions, and is wriiten from the heart. My experiences in sports has help to mold my life and the advise in this book will help mold yours...A MUST-Read for parents, coaches, teachers, and participants of all ages.
