Does he like physical or mental challenges? Steer his activities towards his interests and aptitude, rather than away from competitive situations. If you try to avoid situations where he has to deal with defeat, he will never learn how to cope. Let’s face it, there are lots of times in our lives where we are on the losing end of things and we need to learn to handle it gracefully. We learn that, for better or worse, from experience.
