[quote=Anonymous] “Culturally, we have found that parents have unrealistic expectations for their children to play collegiately or professionally and as a result, they invest in private lessons, trainers, or personal coaches to help their kids,” said Dr. Charles A. Popkin, the study’s lead author. “When you’re investing this amount of time and resources, there can be unwritten, indirect pressure from parents to specialize.” The number one danger of specialization is something called overuse injury: When kids strain their undeveloped bodies practicing the same motions all year round, their muscles never get the chance to fully heal when they rest. The near-constant strain can result in pediatric trauma, and the need for corrective surgeries to knees, wrists, and shoulders.[/quote]
