Great isn't it when you show them what shots to make and what to aim for and in less than a week they are kicking your ass .
Let's hope they get to enjoy it as much as we do and hopefully one day they will take over your passion for the hobby.

I think that is a great thing!

Not that they are beating your scores - that they have an interest in your games and play them  ^^^
