Kids get PAID for Good Grades, comments...

I personally think that it is okay since money is the primary motivation to succeed anyway. Then these kids might as well learn the responsibilities and the values that comes along with it an early stage.

As I have said, seriously, if Financial Management was only taught in high school like what they are doing now, life could have been much sweeter.

Filipinos should be taught or trained to have an entreprenurial mind in a global scale and the value of money at an early age since our government can never alleviate us from poverty.

My dad gave me money everytime I had a perfect score in a test. That taught me that if I wanted money, I had to work for it. It was quite effective as a motivator.

Question:

1. Why can't we motivate a child to return the kindness of his/her parents for sending him/her to school?

2. Why can't we motivate a child to become an achiever for what he can be to others than what he can get for himself/herself?

3. Why can't we teach the child that accomplishment (good grades etc) doesn't always come with material rewards but rather the gift of knowledge?

Actually, it would still depend on how the parents teaches values to their children... Giving money may have both PROS & CONS on the effect as motivation in having good grades... personally, i dont do that to my kids because it feels like bribery. "In situations that may arise" that the giver wont have money anymore to bribe... i mean give to their child/student, will it still motivate the child to strive hard for good grades? As much as possible, inspiring them to succeed and strive hard not only for good grades, but as well as having a good life, physically, mentally & spiritually must come from themselves... with the parents' guidance of course.
