[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well I did the whole rewards thing, charts, tokens, jars, gold stars, device time, you name it. [b]It made him devalue homework, helping the family out, whatever goal we set for him[/b]. Yes, everything got done. But the bigger goal was growing further and further out of reach. We began to give extrinsic rewards that were combined with intrinsic or included socialization time, and it helped to teach him why and how to value intrinsic goals and people. It takes much longer but it does work for many kids. [/quote] We don't have this problem with our reward system.. Nor does our child throw a tantrum if the teacher forgets to give him his reward for meeting his behavioral goals at school. He knows that he will get it the next day when he reminds her. We had a functional behavioral assessment and a behavioral intervention plan by a trained behaviorist done for school and the reward system has been life changing without any downsides.[/quote]
