[QUOTE="tonime, post: 202015, member: 144"] Oh, I have used carrots! Lots and lots and lots. They do work. However, it is important to make our difficult child's realize that there are everyday rewards too. I love the book -- Transforming the Difficult Child-- the author writes about giving specific, positive praise. I think this works--even for the smallest thing. He suggests (which I agree with) that lots of times kids don't know when they are doing things right. Many adults just say "good job" well-- what was good about it? Maybe it can be just-- gee- Duckie you wrote your spelling words neatly, keep it up! or--you did that whole page without complaining--you focused and did a neat job. Now, I know with difficult child's it won't ALWAYS work-- but many times it does good luck with HS musical! [/QUOTE]
