[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We pay for grades. It works and - frankly - is more akin to the real world where high performers get paid more in the workplace (exceptions abound, of course). Big drop in compensation from an A to a B+. We have bonuses too for perfect GPA and certain milestones on SAT, class rank, etc. My kid decides what his time is worth....and he seems to like money. It's nice because I'm not actually pressuring and following up. He wants to make some coin and pushes himself. Win-win for us. [/quote] But if your child was not capable of the “top dollar” performance, but absolutely trying his best…what would you do? Or if you saw his mental health suffering, to please you two?[/quote] Would hate to be her kid! The stress put on a kid who isn't capable could easily send them spiraling downward mentally. Imagine thinking giving 100% is not good enough for your parents, year after year after year and being told you are stupid[/quote]
