[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And coaches don't offer lollipops or patches if a kid performs a skill in a game? There is nothing wrong with "bribes" or rewards for your kids. They should be in support of development and are rather commonplace. [b]The only problem I have with the rewards for goals is it is outcome based. [/b]I have made the same mistake and now will reward based on preforming particular skills or general effort and hustle. [/quote] A goal is the definition of outcome-based. And yes, there is something wrong with bribing kids to perform in sports. [/quote] Or a "goal" could be defined as something you set out to achieve in a game. If you successfully beat a kid with a step over i'll give you $1.00. If you make three successful passes another $1.00. or replace the dollar with a lollipop. The point is it can help kids try things in games that they would be to nervous otherwise to try, for fear of failing. Get off your high horse.[/quote]
