HOW TO USE INCENTIVES AND REWARDS
BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION REINFORCES GOOD BEHAVIOR & HELPS DETER INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR.
- Begin the Happy Face program when the child understands "sequence of order” or between
3 ½-
4 years old. Because of the built-in nature of consistency . - This incentive and reward program can be used with minor adaptations until the age of 14. Then you will begin the Celestial Behavior (A modified points with Reward chart adaptations.)
“Psychologists refer to this kind of reinforcement as A Token Economy. [1] “It is behavior modification based on the principles of operant conditioning. Contingency management systems are often employed by those who practice applied behavior analysis. It is one approach to a contingency management program. Specifically, the original proposal for such a system emphasized reinforcing positive behavior by awarding "tokens" for meeting positive behavioral goals. The first therapeutic use of a token system was by Avendano y Carderera in 1859, who described a "ticket" for rewarding good behavior in children.” wikipedia
“I have been enjoying your web site so much today. It really is an answer to fervent prayer that I stumbled upon your site, and your parenting plan! I just wanted to write and tell you how enlightening your ideas were to me! I am in sincere search of a parenting plan that will work and not fade over the years.
Our system has been working partially, but it always seemed to fade away. We'd always come back to it and start again because nothing else I tried made things flow in our family...or as you say, brought more peace and love into our home. So, I knew I was on the right track, but something seemed to be missing and I didn't know what it was. So you can imagine my excitement when I found your ideas!
You have found all the missing links that complete the program (which I have testimony of the fact that it truly is our Heavenly Father's program). Our desperation has brought us to investigate many different parenting philosophies and it has been very hard distinguishing between the philosophies of man, and those sent from above.”
