[QUOTE="klmno, post: 241292, member: 3699"] I used the quality time as a reward because I never had much time in the evenings, being a single working Mom. So, while I cooked dinner, difficult child was to tak a shot at getting all his hw done. I checked it after dinner. If it was done, then we had until 7:00 (or whatever) to have quality time. If not, then I went through hw with him. I never made that punishment, unless he just had not made any effert at all, because I didn't want him to feel bad if he just didn't get it. I figured the punishment was us not getting to relax and do something enjoyable together. And whatever he did and got right- I bragged and bragged about how smart he was. That went a long way. Then, the smarter he felt, the more he wanted to prove he was smart by getting so much done quickly. It worked until 4th or 5th grade. LOL! [/QUOTE]
