Thank you for sharing. I enjoy watching your videos. Last week I started using stars and points so my 6 year old son can earn rewards towards things he enjoys doing. I list daily activities/responsibilities for the week that he’s expected to do from making his bed, being kind in school, listening to his teachers, cleaning up after himself, along with others. Then each day I have him to fill in the star as we go through each one. It has led to open conversations about his day, if he gets a star or not, and discussing not only the why but strategies he can use which is making him more self-aware and proactive. The best part is he’s still excited and works towards earning his daily stars so he can get his weekly reward. I hope this one stays since we’ve tried several.
I love how you are incorporating the system. I love this system but it allows kids to be in control of their rewards. It also translates their actions both positive and negative, into tangible consequences.
Thank you for sharing this. It is greatly appreciated. It would be great to see an example of how you talk to them when rewarding them and explaining why they are getting the reward.
Thank you for the tips. Can you explain a little more the reward you would give if they get 10,20, 30, etc stars? And is it stars for multiple things or just for one thing you need them to do?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I also like the conversion method. For my daughter, she enjoys putting a star on her 'star chart'. Keeping a physical form of the star chart allows me to track her overall efforts over a period of time. I never thought about using a short amount of time towards a show and forgot about having her stay relevant with her friends at daycare. Thank you again.
Thank you. I think you are my first ever comment since I learned how to turn on the comments section. Thanks for sharing your star system. It’s great to exchange ideas with other parents.
@Jelena Beskovic thank you for the question. I do give them rewards separately. I am very intentional about telling them why they are getting the reward. Overtime I have rewarded them more for things that reflect our values (kindness, integrity, ingenuity etc.) than actual performance metrics.
I love your videos I have a much older child he is 12and I can not get him to do his math I want him to be at grade level right now he is about 4th grade level in math can you give me any advice.
Rewards system simplified.... you've made my day!

How would you introduce this to a 1yo and 2yo to understand the reward system?
Also, can you share a video for correcting poor behavior/ tantrums?

Thank you. That is a great idea.
Thanks for sharing! I like how you broke down pros and cons. I’m going to start using the conversation method

Thank you for sharing these tips.
How do you manage this schedule as a full-time physician?
Thank you.

Will you be putting your children in traditional schools or will you do homeschooling until they're eligible to matriculate into college?
My son is 8years old. He has big emotions when getting something wrong. I am tring to encouarge him more. Do you think this will help him?
Thank you 🙏🏾
