Parents whose children show a special interest in a sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their children¡¯s careers£®Should they allow their children to train to become top sportsmen and sportswomen? For many children it means starting schoolwork very young£®And going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place£®It¡¯s very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing£®
Another problem is of course money, In many countries money for training is available from government for the very best young sportsmen and sportswomen£®If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child¡¯s development and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc£®All can be expensive£®
Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age£®Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed£®Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by training when young that you can reach the top as successful sports person£®It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training£®
