Yesterday my son and I were playing arcade games on the computer, those one of the car races that you have to be really quick withthe control buttons. I always managed to damage the car after a few laps while my son's control was excellent. His young hands were swift and managed to get higher scores than me. Does you son beats you at these type of games?

Yes, my son always beats me and even my eleven year old grandaughter who is disabled can beat me. We call her "Buttons" because she is very quick with her fingers and hands. The only game they can never beat me at is scrabble so I like to play this.

It's remarkable how much fast they develop their hands dexterity.

Think yaaa the sons are born to beat the parents all the time we are here and all the time to come. We have learned every thing after coming on this earth and the population coming on this earth specially now are coming pre educated. In the days to come ther will born matriculates, graduates and master degree also. Do not think it otherwise because the children in this age are more faster then the speed we have.

My dad has never really been one for video games,but I bet if me and him were playing I would beat him every time because I am very good at video games in my opinion,and I have always enjoyed them,I am sure when me and my fiance have kids that our sons will be better at video games then me,because I am sure that my skills will rub off on them,and then they will use them to their advantage and manage to outwit me.

Well i will answer you from the pointy of view of the son (that's me) - yes, i beat my father at that kind of games, i guess the kids these days have had more training since we grew up with computers and all - also since i am 20 years old, i guess i will be beaten by a kid that has 12-13 years old, because they mostly have computers since they are really small kids (i head my first computer at about that age...)

its like cards but kids cards.if you open it you need to memorize what pic so that when you opened next time you will know thats the right pair of the cards.for example when you open the first card its a frog,then you open next its not a frog then its your partners turn then ist a frog.then your partner did not get the perfect pair so its your turn so now you will memorize the frog then you will get the pair of your frog.i hope this is clear.its fun and its good for the kids brain.

I have unfortunately not had the chance to play games like this with my own son but ain't humility a wonderful thing! lol. The toys and games kids play with today are SO different to the ones around when I was a child and this is probably the same for you also. Based on this I think you had better get used to him beating you! 
Either that or give him a lesson in one of the "old timer" games we used to play as kids ourselves!
