Help! My child refuses to play sports

We can never say it enough, the sport is good for your health Even more when practiced from an early age. So, he will avoid, to our children, all that is related to the risks of overweight, will strengthen their organs (lung, heart ...) and will undeniably participate in their psychomotor development. However, during this period of school, some parents participate in this repetitive scenario each year: their cherub refuses to practice a sporting activity.
Is it really serious? Here again, we must relativize, weigh the pros and cons. Do you really know why your child refuses to do sport ? What are his brakes?

At first, it is better to privilege dialogue. Remind him of the beneficial effects of sport on health, try to see with him which one might suit him. However, it is essential to think of the good of thechild, to his blossoming. It can not be forced to practice a sporting activity. To register him in spite of himself, could have the opposite effect, to demotivate him.

A child who do not do sportOutside the school (since it is still in the course of schooling with PSE courses) it is not the sea to drink. our children sometimes have other interests, which can lead to other extracurricular activities. The theater for example, which helps to have a better fluency in oral, overcome his shyness. Or again, the practice of a musical instrument such as piano, dance, provided again that this activity is not imposed on him. Is there a life without the sport ? Yes, and thankfully!
