But I agree also that it's probably not something that should be used all day everyday as a way of life, but of course each to their own! xMaisiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17496010725992755585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4207176078599945299.post-10725653105547359482018-04-26T11:27:46.077+00:002018-04-26T11:27:46.077+00:00I agree still with what I said there, bribing has ...I agree still with what I said there, bribing has a time and a place and I feel as parents we need to find the right balance between what is a good bribe and what is something that could cause argumentsMummy Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16537816422884127813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4207176078599945299.post-46751489660017750572018-04-26T08:16:33.999+00:002018-04-26T08:16:33.999+00:00Bribes can definitley work sometimes, especially w...Bribes can definitley work sometimes, especially with younger children, and it teaches them that if they follow through with something they will benefit from their perserverance. However, like you mentioned and some others in your quotes, there is a balance. When does bribing become too much and too often? I think it all depends on the context and how that day is going for both the parents and the child. Sometime it is just about keeping our sanity and other times it is more about teaching a good lesson. <br />I think it is important though, when offering a bribe, that if a child does NOT follow through, that they are not rewarded. I often see children still getting the reward even though they did not actually hold up their part of the bargain! In that case they are just learning that they can do whatever they like and still get their reward at the end of the day (as long as they kick up enough fuss!)<br />A good post with lots to consider and think about!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07880508715988860822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4207176078599945299.post-83418822759291187462018-04-26T07:39:04.396+00:002018-04-26T07:39:04.396+00:00I'm all for bribes, I'm all for pocket mon...I'm all for bribes, I'm all for pocket money and doing chores round the house.
