[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like positive incentives work better than negative ones. Also so much depends on the kid, but is this a kid who needs to get physical exercise to decompress? Is basketball one of several activities or is it the one thing he really loves? In either of those cases, I would say that not letting him play is a negative thing.[/quote] I have a child who gets easily As and we don't bring it up other than saying well done. It would totally routine her character if she got money for it. We praise hard work and perseverance not natural giftedness. You need to find out what motivates your kid and praise all their accomplishments if they worked hard for it. Love and nurture the child you have not the child you want. [/quote]
