There's just absolutely no challenge in that though.
The sense of achievement I got when I started beating my dad at stuff (he'd never let me win) is so much better than if he'd have let me win. Also teaches you to think about how you get better at stuff and learning. There will be times when the person losing will get annoyed and angry, as a kid especially, but it teaches you to deal with it.
It also teaches you not to be a fgt who goes "ohh it's the fun of playing not winning" which is the most important thing.
