Hi!! Last Tuesday my daughter and I agreed on something. I was feeling frustrated because my daughter was being hard headed so I spoke with my daughter and made an agreement with her. I told her that if she can try to be a good girl in one day I will give her a star and if the stars she has reaches 10 we will buy her a toy of her choosing as her prize for trying her best to be a good girl.
You know what, she is trying her best to be a good girl, she is more obedient now and more respectful of my feelings, although she is yet to receive a star but her attitudes are way better than before.
I am kinda proud of this agreement I had with her.

Good to encourage her but if you dont give her a star she will get fed up trying and just go back to how she was before.

I intend to, in fact she already earned 2 stars from the day we had the agreement.

Thanks, the advice I always get in relation to parenting is to be creative. I guess we do what we must for our children.
