Try to make some sense. Or post your confused comment to the person who wrote the comment about "self esteem" in the first place, the person who may believe what you glibly wrote, "having soccer leagues for children where no score is kept". However, I don't think even he/she would believe "not keeping score" was a good idea. In fact it's ridiculous.

If you're looking for a dispute, look elsewhere.

By the way, as I quoted Billthedrill in post # 4973:

******

“We would all be better off if we would ask the other party what he or she thinks instead of telling them. It's almost always a mischaracterization, and it brings more heat than light.”

Even though you posed your incorrect supposition as a question, you would have avoided being wrong if you just simply had done what was suggested by Billthedrill above.

Too many people here are just looking for a disagreement. That's not cool or beneficial to the site.

I apologize for not explaining myself better.

I visited this thread on-the-run...in between appointments this morning and saw the exchange between yourselves and obviously the smiley face didn't register.

The stupid liberal ideas of not grading tests...playing games without keeping score...in order to not tamper with a little one's sense of self sprang into my obviously coffee-starved mind. ;^)
