You may have seen my own...Hmmmm, lots of thoughts. You may have seen my own post about our sticker chart. In my case, I've not given anything concrete as a reward, apart from the stickers themselves, which he puts in his sticker book once he has ten. Instead I give him more choice. The activities he chooses from, are activities which we do anyway as I normally fit them into our week whenever we have a gap, but the reward is that he gets to choose which one we'll do. I was very hesitant about using a reward system, as like you, I wanted him to choose to behave well on his own, for the intrinsic benefits. For us it was manners. He seemed to have a mental block on pleases and thank-yous, and while I was quite happy to let that slide, I'm afraid it was Beth and our friend Kayla, neither of whom have C's language skills, both happily saying please, that decided us into some action. I'd tried the stick, now it was time to introduce a carrot. It's worked a charm!smilymelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15005558661668513565noreply@blogger.com
