often put their children in sports to help them “fit in”, gain self-confidence, and get healthy, but sometimes it has the opposite effect. Competition sports can turn some children into arrogant athletes with no sense of sportsmanship and sometimes sports can make an introverted child more likely to withdraw and feel pressured.
