[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]... I'm also a hiring manager and oversee [b]recent college grads/workers in their 20s (early Gen Z/late Gen Y)[/b]. The VAST majority of people in this age range lack grit and resilience, and they are a major PITA for most workplaces. The sheer lack of grit, resilience, and the ability to persevere when times are tough among recent college grads these days is depressingly low, so I know by pushing my kids in sports (even though I know they're nowhere near good enough to get recruited), I'm doing them a world of favors. ... [/quote] Wait though, aren't these the kids that grew up in the sports obsessed child rearing culture of the 21st century? I want OP to come back and explain why the new hires aren't proof of the opposite conclusion, that sports DON'T help develop grit and resilience. [/quote]
