[quote=Anonymous]I don't know where the 10:22 got the idea that anyone was against praise for effort or in favor of easy-As/coasting. That said, I don't want my kid to live for praise. I don't think wasted effort is inherently praiseworthy. And I think that doing worthwhile things well merits praise/appreciation regardless of how much effort was involved. Things like grades, money, and external reward structures matter to the extent that they affect your ability to do what you want to do, but, beyond that, they don't usually function as a source of standards for me.[/quote]
