Its not a solution, I believe. Random success is not based on decision making skills. Random success will teach child to make random decisions.
Just not be afraid to really lose to your child in game which at start equally unknown for both you and your child. Let your child to learn how to win and learn how to learn to win.
As an example of such a learning: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11653538 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11653538
If you or your child do not like chess, you can choose any other game, which allows your child to use his fluent mind strengths to win you. Just stop thinking that child is small, stupid and unable to win a fair game. He really can win, but not the games where your crystallized mind has its advantages.
- NPMaxwell 10y agoI'm guessing that you meant to type "learn how to win and learn how to lose", which is a great point. Understanding how to move forward happily after failure is a huge asset.
- inimino 10y agoThat is another good point but I think they meant to type what they typed.
- ordu 10y agoYes, you are right, game maybe used to teach child to lose. And of course should be used in such manner. But I meant something different. Learning how to play particular game is a small step to aquiring general learning skills. How to learn is a great problem, and many do not know efficient ways to learn something. But its very important not only to move forward after a failure, but to become smarter and increase chances of making successful decisions on the next occasion to win.
