Do you think participation trophies are worth being handed to some youth? According to the article " Participation trophies" people have different thoughts on handing out participation trophies to the youth. James Harrison had a post on Instagram about how he was taking his sons trophies back because of the non hard work and he believed that the trophies have to be earned not just given. He was also taking the trophy as a sign of disrespect due to it just saying participant. He told his son that they'd get trophies when they worked really hard and that when he has thoughts they he earned the trophies. Participation trophies are a waste of time.
