[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If rewarding behavior has backfired in the past... I would do something nice for him (new freedom/privilege, movie with a couple friends, whatever), but I would NOT directly link it to his behavior. It's not necessary. He'll eventually figure out that following the rules => more permissive parents. It doesn't need to be "clean your room = a new video game". In fact, I would do everything possible to avoid that dynamic.[/quote] Bingo. Your kid is smart, so you need to be smart too. What's a privilege he's been wanting? Tell him whatever that is is now okay (within whatever reasons). Don't mention his good behaviour. He'll figure it out. [/quote]
