whenever I get to play against them they are real dicks and yell out faget at me the whole time.
No I don't ever go easy on anyone (I do go very well in a team with Dubitsue though, but he is 13 so he isn't a yound kid) I always give it my all.

Children need to learn fair competition.

I'm the youngest out of the family, so that will only leave my twelve year old nephew and no way i let him win, if he by chance did win he wouldn't let it go for days

I might go easy on them but I don't let anyone win and if they get pissed off if I win, I will stop playing with them. It's just a game.

Most of those young kids can kick my ass on a video game, I do my best but it's not enough most of the time.

I used to let my sister win. Now if she loses she cries. She's almost twelve years old.

If I were to play one, if they knew anything about the game, I'm sure I wouldn't have to "let" them win.

Kids yes. Wife, no. There's hell to pay when I beat her a--. Don't do it too often but it's fun to watch as she builds up to the ultimate put down directed at me.

There is a teachable moment when playing a kid...they learn they won't win every time they play, and to lose a game with some dignity...or at least with a minimum of trash talk...LOL

Sometimes yes and sometimes no. If they are playing well, and trying hard sometimes I let them win. Other times not. It's good to let kids experience both losing and winning because that is how life goes. I adjust my level of play to the kids level.

In truth though we don't play video games that much. There is no point.

a little to keep the competitive spirit shining and to make them want to try more, and not al the time so they don't get used to winning all the time and think they should win everytime
