I agree that chores should not necessarily be rewarded with money. My parents give me food and a place to sleep, which is so much more than I probably deserve.
I'm not sure if I'd agree with giving kids money for doing well at school though. But having said that, it probably is a good method of encouragement. On the other hand, should they fail, they might become more disheartened (due to the lack-of-a-gift). And then pity might cause one to give way (because they "tried their best" and what not), and then we go down the slippery slope. xD I suppose, being quite naturally motivated in academia, I wouldn't understand though. This isn't to say that children shouldn't ever be treated. I received a lot (well, a lot being used liberally - anything is really a lot in my eyes xD) of random things, probably in a manner similar to FadedReality. I'm not sure how to put it - but I think there's something 'wrong' about the business relationship between parent and child. They can do that later, in a real job. [edit]I suppose I should say 'we', being a kid myself, technically. xD How ya doing, buddy? By any other name, would smell as sweet.
