[quote=Anonymous]Didn't read the responses. From about age seven to maybe nine, we saw this in our son. We called it poor sport behavior. Initially, we would tell him he was being a poor sport. Once he understood what it meant to be a poor sport, we'd call him out and then give him an appropriate reaction. We never went the route of letting him win. Our attitude was always that it's ok to be disappointed, but not be a sore loser. He is now 14 and a really good sport. He appreciates the skills of those that won and can critique his own performance and make a plan to improve it. [/quote]
