Ah but what came before the chess board? Was it created or did it just happen?

"If your daughter loves chess...I hope she has a club to go to. You never know...at seven, she may be a potential chanpion at some level."

She is not yet mature enough for real competition. When she sees that she has someone beat, she starts sacrificing her pieces just to end the game. I showed her how to resign or concede gracefully, which she prefers to ending the game as a win or loss.

There is a chess club at her school. She is going to check it out soon.
