I was play chess with my seven year old son today, he knows the moves but can't really play, He's white and the game started.

1) Nc3 ... g6
2) Ne4... Bg7
3) Nf6+... I explain that I can take his knight with 3 pieces Nxf6
4) b3....Ne4
5) Ba3.... Bxa1
6) Qxa1... At this point I'm not really paying much attention to the game as I'm also having a chat with my father who is watching and I reply e6.
Then I take a quick glance at the board and tell my son that he can make a good move which he soon spots.
7) Qxh8+, at which point I go to move my king to e7 and then suddendly see the bishop on a3 and realise I had been checkmated.....much to the amusement of my father!

Well played.

That's how my dad got me hooked onto chess. Lost to me once when I was about 7 or 8, and then he started concentrating and I never won again until I was about 14.

I'm always losing to my 4 yo. Not that games are of exceptional quality though:-)

I can't say that I've lost to my children, but I did lose to a 6 year old not too long ago. I didn't notice my queen was en prise 🙁

Isn't that one called Philidor's mate or something like that?

No, that's the "marina was obviously drunk" mate. Very common in some circles.
