b'There are many reasons parents shouldn\\u2019t be overprotective. The psychological effects of overprotective parents can be significant. The most notable one is that it hurts their children\\u2019s growth and development into well-adjusted, independent adults. Here are the different ways this harm manifests. PORTLAND, Ore. \\u2014 Crystal Dunn was often the only Black girl on her youth soccer clubs, and even when she finally made it to the national team, she did her own hair and makeup for photo shoots because "there wasn\'t someone set up for me." \\xa0 While the U.S. national team has steadily become more representative, Dunn says there\'s still work to be done. That starts with making sure young women of color feel included all the way down to the youth level.
"I had very supportive parents who explained to me that, \'This is OK, you are still welcome in this sport. And just because there aren\'t many people that look like you, this is still your game,\'" Dunn said. That support was key to her success "because honestly at the end of the day, it\'s pretty lonely to feel like you\'re the only one in this space and to not feel as if you belong."

What Happens when you overprotect your children: -Worry is a recurrent, dysfunctional and rigid form of negative thinking that is often a primary sign of generalized anxiety disorder. -Parental overprotection can undermine a child\\u2019s development of independent coping skills. -Overprotectiveness conveys to the child a sense that the world is dangerous. It reinforces avoidance and keeps children from engaging in social situations restricting the opportunities to build friendships and learn social skills. -Overprotective parents go out of their way to make sure their children don\\u2019t fail. They rescue their children quickly and provide them with unnecessary assistance, often without being asked.\\xa0 -Higher occurrence of anxiety and depression, overprotected children also have lower self-esteem and confidence in their ability to solve everyday problems. -Overprotective parenting is associated with high degrees of bullying experienced by the child --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/coachcameron/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/coachcameron/support'
