Did you know that seven out of ten parents admit they plan to lose every time the Monopoly, Ludo or Trivial Pursuit board comes out? Parents are letting their children trounce them at board games to avoid tears and tantrums.
Mums are the biggest pushovers and regularly pretend to be useless but one in ten fathers refuses to go down without a fight, according to a survey by Lego. While fathers believe children need to learn the ups and downs of life, a quarter of parents admitted they were wracked with guilt when the little ones lost.

What are you thoughts would you let your child win?

I think I must be in the minority on this... yes I do let my kids win but only form time to time. I believe this gives them a better sense of achievement!

Just saying!
