[quote=Anonymous][quote]I have been told to use extrinsic motivation. He likes device time so we use that as rewards for completing work. However, when is he going to learn how to intrinsically motivate himself? [/quote] You can't make him learn to motivate himself. That's why with certain kids you have to go the extrinsic route. If/when he finds a passion, he will be intrinsically motivated. If not, well, he'll learn to achieve so that he can obtain the things he wants. The more he wants things, the better paying job he'll need.[/quote]
