You're Letting Me Win!

An interesting segment on the morning show today...I was tslking about a piece in the Boston Globe today about how all parents have times when they let their children win at games, especially when they are really young. Experts say it's the thing to do for preschoolers and young children. I was wondering, at what age should you change and get competitive? A caller pointed out that all children are different and it really depends on the child's maturity. I think she's right. Another caller pointed out that the most important thing is just the fact that you are spending time with the children when hopefully they have your complete attention. I couldn't agree more. Yes we are all busy, and many times we are busy with very important things....but wouldn't it be great if you could give your kids or grand children an hour or more of your total attention every day????
