[quote=Anonymous]^^PP here. Forgot to mention that when I 'bargained' with DS about video game time and the presentation, he had a C- in the class. You've got to maintain enough flexiblity/currency to change behavior. It's a balancing act. You've got to be consistent but not so rigid that you can't find a path to get what it is you want. I needed DS to see that practice made the presentation better and he would likely get a better grade (he was not impressed that presentation skills are needed in the workforce and this would help him learn them). DS will also not be allowed to have a cell phone all summer if he has any D/Fs. I really don't want to keep it all summer but THAT is non-negotiable. He 'loses' the privilege until he gets a report card with no D/Fs. This totally sucks and I hate having to do it but it's better than the alternative. I work really hard to keep emotion out of it. Objective measures........[/quote]
