[QUOTE="Josie, post: 412570, member: 1792"] All 3 of the schools that our kids have attended have online reporting. I get a report every week with the grades for each class and I can click on it to see individual grades by assignment. Are you sure your school doesn't have something similar? That way you could monitor it every week and know if there was missing work or not. I was against paying for grades since I thought they should just do the work they were supposed to do. Then, A had lots of missing assignments one year and ended up with a bad grade. I would have preferred to take away her privileges until she complied with doing her hw, but she is a (mostly former) difficult child with the ODD diagnosis. We were afraid she would go to battle over this just to show us that we couldn't make her do it. Since we really just want her to do her work, we tried to make her want to do it with our incentive plan. I justified it in my mind by thinking that husband gets a bonus if he and his company do well. For her, it worked, but I could see how it might not work for kids with different issues. [/QUOTE]
