Many parents give their children gifts and money for good grades.
And this method works: the student becomes motivated.
The boy or girl begins to strive to get as many top marks as possible.
However, this approach also has its drawbacks, which mom and dad should know about in advance.
But first, let's start with the advantages of the method.
Money for good grades: advantages
The positive effect is obvious: the child is motivated to get good grades.
In order to gain approval from the teacher, the student begins to show diligence, TUT NEWS reports.
The child prepares better for classes and tries to understand the material being studied well.
Thanks to the "prizes" the schoolchild understands that his efforts are not meaningless. In addition, the child begins to realize the importance of education.
Money for good grades: cons
Unfortunately, this method cannot be called ideal.
This approach has a serious drawback: the child’s main goal may not be to gain knowledge, but to receive money/gifts.
But what a schoolchild needs first and foremost are skills: the ability to write/read correctly, solve problems, and think logically.
If a child tries only for the sake of a reward, then he is unlikely to enjoy learning.
In addition, he may get good grades by cheating. For example, by cheating. Parents are unlikely to achieve this result.
