be a HAPPIER Gym parent in 2015

ANNE JOSEPHSON:

1. Enjoy watching your child’s joy in doing gymnastics, not in your child’s achievement within gymnastics.

5. Stop nagging.

7. Spend money on experiences not things.

8. Write a note or email of gratitude to your child’s coaches, the front desk worker or gym owner.

11. Ignore others’ expectations.
