[quote=Anonymous]It's ok to be bothered by yours kid not winning. We all want our kids to win. But only a little and don't show it to them. My kid won't make an A meet this year. But she comes to every practice and works so hard. I cheer for her making it second to last in her heats. Realize it's really important for them to know you are proud of them when they don't win too. For the kids who are good at whatever, a lot of their identity is wrapped up in winning and when inevitably they lose (as most kids do who aren't olympians) at something, it s a huge hit. 3rd place winners are happy to place while those in 2nd place are upset they aren't first.
