“What we try do as parents is we just try to help them navigate through the inner monologue that takes place with kids, not necessarily whether they play well or play bad, we don’t care about that, right? But if your daughter goes up and she strikes out, how does she navigate herself through that emotionally, you know what I mean?” he said in an interview with the The Insider‘s Michael Yo. “As parents, we just try to guide them to kind of have that attitude because when you have that attitude you can navigate yourself through it. You can do anything you want.”
