I introduced my son and daughter to the slower and softer method and worked our way up....Both very shoot well...

Totally. I also try to keep recoil a nonissue for my kiddos. I try to get my two teenage sons at least 150-200 rounds of practice with their big game rifles (708 & 308) annually. But by far the bulk of their rifle practice is with a .222 @ steel and 22RF at gophers. They get a fair bit of practice from field positions, only enough bench time for sighting-in/confirming drops/confidence building. They shoot better than many and take a great deal of pride in it.
