Originally posted by ivanhoeThere is a force in my home, a powerful force which opposes chess. It is called "Mama," and it wields an influence over my children with which I, a mere mortal, have not the strength to contend. Still, perhaps by sly means and clever planning (ie, begging and pleading) I can overcome Mama and teach chess to my children.
Congratulations Huntingbear ! A six-day-old daughter !
and allready hooked on chess .... 😵

There is a way that might help.
See to it that Mama gets hooked ....... 😵

She's played a small handful of games with me. I can usually expect a game of chess with her for Father's day 🙂
She was actually playing against an electronic board for a while, but the batteries died and I haven't yet replaced them.
In general, she says she'll give chess a more serious try if I try knitting. LOL.
