Dealing with bullies on your child's sports team is a difficult task. One should not upset the child further by interfering too much. But proper care and an simple eye watching should be kept on children.
Bullies care cruel enough to make a child lose self-esteem and the desire to play sports. Youth sports should be fun and appealing for a child, no matter what age. Unfortunately bullies can be a hindrance.
Bullies can make a child feel like a failure, lonely, unhappy and afraid. Reassure your child. Let him know that it's not his fault, and there's nothing wrong with him.
