This is a powerful approach to disciplining young people while raising responsibility. It is a proven strategy which also reduces stress and improves relationships.
Irresponsible behavior is a major problem for parents, teachers, and society.
Young people are different today . Rewards, punishments, and telling just don't work for far too many of them. Rewards motivate young people to be responsible. In addition, we are not honest with young people when we give them rewards for expected behavior. Society does not give such rewards.
