[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 198415, member: 3493"] While I really overall like your ideas, I am concerned about someone younger or smaller automatically having fewer respect points. In my house, that would translate into my 9 year old being screwed over constantly. I would propose that siblings and other non-adults begin with respect points equal to difficult child and then they can add or subtract based on expertise, etc. as earned. For instance, my 9 year old can earn respect points based on his knowledge of science. Penalizing someone because they are merely smaller or younger doesn't teach difficult child to respect all others and can be demeaning and demoralizing to the younger child. Otherwise, a great idea and I am going to try it - my 12 year old pretty much easy child terrorizes the 9 year old to the point where I am afraid my younger child will kill him when they get older, this MIGHT work. The 12 year old is not autistic and is eminently reasonable on all subjects other than his younger brother, bathing and HW. [/QUOTE]
