I usually challenge children because it’s good for them to learn how to lose. But I have afforded them a few victories.

I usually make the first round really hard for them to win so that when they do win the second round they feel much more accomplished

Don’t destroy them, but teach them to lose with grade. Totally go easy and let them win sometimes, but letting them win every time creates a perfectionist that doesn’t know how to lose. My dad did this to my brother and he had hella problems with it, meanwhile I never won anything bc my brother kicked the shit out of me since he was older, but I’m on losing now
