[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, don't call it a bribe. Every parent I know incentivizes their child to do certain things and it usually begins with toilet training. Go to the bathroom, get a sticker or a jelly bean. Then it moves on to things like getting stickers to do homework and cashing in those stickers for a movie and popcorn. There is nothing wrong with reinforcing positive behavior this way and it's actually recommended by many child development experts. OP, I would change your approach slightly by doing something like giving him a star or whatever for each day of physical activity and then let him use the stars for things he wants. I would not force him to do a particular sport but that's just me. [/quote] thank you for the stars idea![/quote]
