[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 568335, member: 14557"] I used candies too. Boys were allowed to eat candies on Saturdays and I made them earn them during the week. Both had their own candy jar and when they did good, one small candy was put to the jar. it helped that my boys have three year age differences so it was easy to explain them why they got a candy from different type of things. And I often kept theme weeks when I wanted to drill something to them and most of the candies came from the thing we were working on. System worked quite well for few years. it was exhausting to keep up, but it was efficient especially with some simple problem behaviours. It of course didn't do a thing to teach difficult child social skills or any other big abstract things, but it did help a lot with everyday things like saying thank you, saying hi, putting your gloves on without fussing, keeping them on while out, washing hands before eating, brushing teeth etc. That type of things. With easy child it worked really well. All in all it was worth it to us. [/QUOTE]
