When you are struggling with getting your kid to do what you want, are you quick to say "do it and you'll get a treat tonight?"
It seems so easy but we have learned that it is just a temporary behavior bandaid.
In today's episode we discuss

1. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BRIBERY & REWARDS
2. 10 REASONS THEY DON'T WORK
3. HOW TO DO IT DIFFERENTLY

After learning the negative effects that bribes have on our kids we hope you are tempted to sway away from using this. It will only do a disservice to your little ones in their future.
Rewards should be natural or be planned ahead. Not used in the heat of them moment, that is when they become bribes.
Things such as basic human hygiene and health are vital and do not need to be rewarded. Please remember once the reward is removed the behavior usually is as well.
Bribes decrease our littles motivation and enthusiasm. It also robs them of the good feelings we get just from doing good deeds. Which will also lead to bratty behaviors. Nobody wants a bratty child!
Hopefully, your #1 takeaway is before that bribe slips out, just ZIP IT!
