About this episode
Participation trophies aren't a new thing, as this custom goes back over 100 years. What is new, however, is the debate. Are they really harmful to motivation and the ability to accept disappointment? Are they helpful? Join Heather and Stacy, licensed clinical social workers, in this psychologically riveting discussion about whether the trophies help or harm our children and why this has become a trending debate.
