idea on how to teach children responsibility
Children with bad attitude - We've had a child with a bad attitude. I have
read/learned that it is best to ignore the negative and acknowledge the
positive. Instead of punishing him for his negative attitude, reward him when
his attitude is good. I asked my son what thing he would really like to do. He
had to earn 100 positive points to be able to do it. Then when he was positive
or handled a situation well, he earned points (we just keep track in our
heads...he's a numbers guy!). I would even prompt him when a situation came up
where I knew he could react negatively with a little reminder about points, so
that he would get in a habit of responding better to situations. It has really
been working so far for him. And I am off his back. (Jennifer Cannon)
