cash for good grades

[jackman]

in actuality, she isn't rewarded with this particular deal for every grading period, this was based on the only time she's slipped and had some Cs. i wanted to nip it in the bud early and tell her both, that Cs won't fly and stress the importance of getting them back up where they usually are.

both sides have merit. i certainly will not have an entitled child on my hands, i grew up quite poor and didn't realize there was anything wrong, that's because there wasn't. as well, i will continue to make sure her achievements are noticed in whatever way that makes sense at the time - not always cash. either way, she knows top grades are the best way to go and will work to achieve that.

on a side note: napoleon, yes i know i type in lowercase and it annoys people, but it's a bad habit i've been into since coding software. naming conventions and all. i knew someone would call me out on it. lol.

moros, that's awesome (your last post, lol). that is how i raise her. we go to zoos, safaris, natural history museums, we camp incessantly, so i can teach her about nature. in fact, i have to stop her mom from buying her everything she wants all the time. i decide the only way to counteract it is to stress learning outside of school as well as in. she's learning that she's responsible for everything she does - good or bad.
