How do I let my son know I am better than he is?

My son is 6 and he thinks he's better than me!

It all started about 3 weeks ago at a party. I was playing him in Foosball, and he beat me 10-7. I screamed at him because he cheated by "spinning". Next game he didn't spin at all, but somehow he still cheated and beat me 10-3. Last week before we all went biking (we always go on Sunday afternoons, if it is sunny) I loosened the training wheels on his bike without him knowing. About 5 minutes into the ride I challenged him in a race. I took off ahead of him, but my foot slipped off the pedal and I twisted ankle and the training wheels never even fell off in time! I was so humiliated.

Tonight he had his birthday party, and the kids are going to play a drinking game (except they will be chugging soda of course!). I'm thinking about putting NyQuil into his soda so he will gag and spit it out... But he will probably still beat me.

How do I show him I'm better?

And if not, where are some fairly priced boarding schools in the Southeast?

    Sounds like you started this and you are a sore loser. You should be teaching him to play fair and that WINNING ISN'T EVERYTHING!!

    You would send your kid to boarding school for beating YOU in a DRINKING GAME that YOU TAUGHT HIM...

    For Shame.

    Wow. Jealous much? You need to be a better parent. Don't even think about sending your kid to a boarding school in the Southeast just because he's better than you. That's just immature.

    GROW UP! High school days are over. There's no competition now.

    Challenge him to a 1v1 game of basketball and elbow him in the face on the game point

    Stop being a sore loser.... Besides kids are good at everything and they learn things so quickly.

    your son is only 6

    he just wants to be like you

    it would be a awful idea to put NyQuil in his drink that would just prove that you are petty.

    Why are you so angry and disappointed that your son is better than you? He is just a kid and wants to have fun, so you should let him. Asshole.
