[quote=Anonymous]I let them win 50/50 when they were little, like 3 or 4. But I'm a firm believer that kids should learn how to lose and they need to lose early and often. ha. But really- kids these days get participation trophies for everything and many are very sore losers. My kids often win at games and we all shake hands afterwards and say "good game." My youngest is 4 (my two older are late elementary and middle school) and she often surprises us and wins. We played Yahtzee over the weekend and she kept rolling Yahtzees! My one son is a perfectionist and the more we played games, the better he got at losing. He knew he didn't have to be perfect or to win, and he could still enjoy playing with us all. [/quote]
