Michelle, yeah...Haha, Helen, you'd understand!<br /><br />Michelle, yeah, generally I'm 'okay', except with my own hubby =) That's just because I CAN pout with him. As for DS: he's only four, and I don't feel like he has the emotional maturity to be fair about winning and losing, especially at home with us. (Especially when these games are much 'luck-dependent' and not strategic at all.) That will come with development and maturity, much like the way it did with DD. One of my points is that we all deal with win-lose situations differently at home and out of the home. Since home is a safe place, we get to 'express' ourselves a bit more, if you know what I mean! =) With their peers, the kiddos are much more mature about it! I am SURE it will all work out one day.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187306461239093068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-31274957522665607722012-01-17T15:35:14.312-06:002012-01-17T15:35:14.312-06:00I think it's interesting how that works. And ...I think it's interesting how that works. And I love that now you play "ok." My parents always let me win, and I turned into a miserable snot playing because of it. In our house, we don't let the wee ones win because I see it as building their confidence more when they genuinely do well and see themselves improving than when I fake it for them - but that's me. That and if you lose poorly, you can make the choice not to play anymore... partly put into place because we already have enough social issues that we can't handicap him more with needing to win everytime he goes against his peers.... It'll all work out someday though, right?Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07803503583347758969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-25013009734339078982012-01-16T12:49:48.601-06:002012-01-16T12:49:48.601-06:00That is sooo funny.That is sooo funny.HELENhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17528058080858711352noreply@blogger.com
