Help with rewards/consequences-kids
Dd's behavior hasn't been great lately and she's really been throwing fits about things. We are looking for ideas to help. One issue is that we normally let her watch tv before bed and on weekend mornings. Lately she is getting way too upset when we turn it off and time for bed. So we keep taking it away as a consequence. But I'd like to be able to have it as an option for rewarding good behavior. But not sure how to make it work.
i originally came up with a reward chart (she does well with reward charts) to have 4 behaviors on for each day. They are the most important and problematic behaviors. If she gets a sticker for each one that she did it she could watch tv that night. But I feel like its hard because if she has 1 issue in the morning she is done for the day. I don't want her to feel like, well I already lost tv from this morning what's the point in doing the other things the rest of the day.
Any suggestions? I know somebody posted in past about a coin system and maybe that would work? Who was that...do you still have the link?
