One of the hardest things to teach young people is teamwork. The strongest children – whether we’re talking about football skills, academic knowledge, memorizing Bible verses, or just about any other skill set – tend to want to do it all themselves. They know that they can do it better than the others and some competitive gene kicks in that drives them do take the shot themselves.
