Discover the secrets of triumphant parenting--and raising a child who excels. Summer Sanders won more medals than any other American swimmer at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. After retiring, she has continued to charm America as a TV commentator and media celebrity. And wherever she goes, parents ask: what gave her the drive to consistently give all she had, no matter what the challenge? How did she develop her self-assurance and raw courage? What did her parents do right? Now Summer Sanders provides compelling, surprisingly simple answers for all parents--whether your child is gifted in sports, in school, or the arts--from the unique perspective of a child who became the world's best in her field. Enriched by advice from a host of other Olympic athletes, Champions Are Raised, Not Born reveals what truly develops a champion. How to recognize a child's true talent. How to provide family support (even if parents are divorced). How to nurture mental toughness and self-confidence. How to encourage your child to become a team player. How to help your child realize her dream without sacrificing her childhood. Winning, losing, and getting both right in life.
