[quote=Anonymous]Sports are not the only thing that build grit and resilience. Also you could argue that kids in sports full time have such a curated life of school/practice/competition that they don't have time to face situations that may be unusual or present new problems that they have to solve. Sports are challenging, but they are the same sorts of challenges over and over. I believe the lack of resilience (which I agree is a problem) has more to do with schools not having due dates on homework and other assignments (and I'm an educator), plus parents that swoop in and help when their kids are facing an issue.
