Reward your kids

How's your kids doing at school? One is making remarkably good progress, while another manages to get lower rank. Is it good then? The younger one who shows progress last semester had been in much lower rank in the past. On the other hand the eldest one who persistently scores in the top two, has just recently been admitted to Junior high as a 7th grader and it seems still need more time to adapt to the new school.

Kids need to be educated we all agree and when they do make genuine effort, they should be rewarded. A taste of little success would encourage them for more hard study. Does it work? We have pampered them with all kind of gadgets including PC, PS2, PSP, DS and WII. Once a while there is a time where they bluntly refuse to study. "Ok, kids listen up unless you get work to study you would not have access to your gaming consoles for 2 consecutive week-end period!"



For us, this kind of reward and punishment works all the time. Would you do it for your kids?
