Can anyone help me find information on the effects that parents have on children atheletes. Kind of like some parents live their life through their children. Thanks very much.

I have twins in ice hockey. I can relate I have seen it all. A book is out by Christopher Andersonn "Will You Still Love Me If I don't Win" Also a book called Successful Coaching by Rainer Martens. This is the #1 selling book for coaches but it has alot of helpful information for parents as well. Andersonn's book might be great for what you are looking for. I just recently purchases it so I have not gotten to read alot yet. I skimmed thru it quickly before writing to you and it may help. Good Luck.
